I was on a plane recently travelling and this lady was putting on nail polish. The smell was so nauseating I did not know what to do. I am sure the other passengers felt the same way. What do you suggest I do next time this happens?

Dear Deanna,

This type of situation is so common on airplanes that they should have a No Nail Polish, Spicy Food or Bad B.O. instead of No Smoking and Fasten Your Seatbelt signs.

All kidding aside, you need to tell a flight attendant to address this and have that person put her nail polish away because it is a closed environment and it is bothering the other passengers.

I hope this helps.
