THIS. Get a cough suppressant before flying. It's annoying as hell to hear someone coughing all the time. You can control it.

Can your Dr give you some cough medicine with codeine to suppress the cough? At the very least get some otc stuff, might help the cough and make you feel better too.

I think as long as your are not coming from Africa, you will not get any special screening.

Good advice. Even without the scares, coughing can cause knee-jerk irritation on a plane! Good luck.

I would definitely use a cough suppressant, and why not bring a note from your doctor? May ease your mind as well as others.

And you are contagious if you are spewing bodily fluids through your cough...or touching things.

Yes, for the peace of mind of your fellow passengers, please wear a mask, and use a cough suppressant. YOU may know you are not contagious, but those around you do not.

Just explain that coughing is not a symptom of Ebola.

I happen to be coughing a lot at the moment - uncontrollably so - and they gave me a mask in the doctor's waiting room. Get one and wear it in the airport and on the plane.

I have a sinus infection (not contagious) and am about to start antibiotics tonight, but I'm still coughing a LOT. I have to fly to FL tomorrow for Thanksgiving. Am I going to get grief or trouble from security or anyone else when I get to the airport, assuming I'm still coughing a lot? I can see if I can get a note form my doc if that would help. Just don't know what symptoms are currently triggering added screening.
