You probably remembered to pack sunscreen for your beach vacation, but would you think to apply some for the plane ride? It turns out that sitting near the window on a plane can result in surprise skin damage.”When you’re in a plane the UVB radiation, most associated with sunburn is blocked by the windows of the plane, but the UVA radiation is not. As you are much closer to the ozone layer the sun’s rays are much more harmful,” Matt Gass, a spokesperson for the British Association of Dermatologists, told Telegraph Travel.This means that the sun’s UVA rays are able to penetrate the window glass and affect your skin. Make sure you apply sunscreen before settling into a window seat for a long flight.
