Yeah man I am on Germ High Alert when I travel. That is a great idea to bring wipes for the tray tables though, I haven't gone down that route. My wife gave me face masks to wear and while I hate to be that guy, the next time I fly I may just bite the bullet and do it. On a cross country flight last year, we got redirected mid flight because some old person had a heart attack or something and my seatmate next to me told me she just got over the flu...and there were three other people on the flight that apparently had the flu. Being stuck on the tarmac in close quarters for hours and hours on end with these mouth breathers gave me crazy anxiety. So at this point, I don't even care if people give me funny looks or think I have airborne AIDS
That burns me up that people travel so sick though, it's extremely inconsiderate (as someone who just nursed his wife back to health after the flu, who we're 95% sure she got from a guy that sneezed on us at the Ren Fest). People joke about doomsday stuff but man, a lot of human beings are absolute neanderthals and have no consideration for their health or the health of others. Sneezing and coughing without covering their mouths, etc. If there's ever some superbug outbreak, it will not surprise me to see it spread across the globe pretty quickly.
