In addition, the fold-down tray tables in airplanes had a significant amount of bacteria.
Furthermore, humidity on airplanes can be extremely low, which can be dehydrating and also leaves you more prone to infection.Though taking water during your flight can reduce the impacts of low humidity, traveling in an RV makes you avoid these effects. In fact, you don’t even need a hand sanitizer.

People who cook at home instead of eating out are more likely to have healthier diets overall, which translates to good health. In an RV, you can avoid eating out because you can buy your groceries, visit farmers markets and prepare your meals.
