"More Than An Inconvenience" - The Fear of Flying With Life-Threatening Peanut Allergies

I consider myself to be one of the LUCKY peanut allergy moms.  My son is anaphylactic to nuts by ingestion only.  So far.  And my family travels regularly, as I have been a flight attendant with Delta Air Lines for over 20+ years.  However, we don't leave home without benadryl or epipens for that 'just in case' time. 

For anyone living with airborne allergies, their day to day living stress can be understandably multiplied. FORGET about flying.  As an allergy mom and advocate, Amy Wicker, author of the Allergy Safe Travel website, has stepped up her focus on educating airlines in hopes of gaining increased clarity on their allergy policies.
