A passenger can sit down on a plane in the morning and be in another part of the world by the end of the day. However, that convenience comes at a price. Travelers often experience jet lag and nausea, as well as other symptoms that come from traveling thousands of feet in the sky.
Two airplane models, the Boeing 787 Dreamliner and the Airbus A350, are now attempting to alleviate that discomfort by adjusting cabin pressure and humidity levels to maximize passenger comfort. Conventional airplanes are pressurized to the equivalent of 8,000 feet, but the new planes allow the equivalency of 6,000 feet which is said to make a huge difference in passenger comfort.
