For the vast majority of people, air travel is fast and easy. But it can be stressful for those flying with an active or underlying health condition.

To avoid in-flight discomfort, carriers should equip themselves with sophisticated systems and skilled attendants. Meanwhile, passengers should be prepared to relax at high altitudes, experts said.

When a young passenger fell ill while flying with China Southern Airlines, a calm and disciplined cabin crew rose to the occasion and saved his life. The flight was bound for Shenzhen in Guangdong province from Beijing on Nov 22. The passenger lost consciousness and there were no doctors on board to offer medical assistance.
