Ah, the water tank. You cannot bring water through security. That little tank will be completely empty. You’ll have to buy a tiny bottle of distilled water after security—or just use the plane’s tap water? No. Don’t use plane tap water. It’s not safe. Either buy the water or run your machine dry. Dry mode is better than no sleep, trust me.
Will People Stare?
Maybe. A mask on a plane looks... strange. But here’s the secret: most passengers are too busy judging their own lives to notice you. They’re scrolling on TikTok or trying to sleep themselves. If someone does stare, just whisper, “I’m a pilot’s secret weapon.” They’ll leave you alone. Or call the flight attendant. Play it cool.
