Jana, I also wanted to let you know that being a singer myself, I thought
I'd leave you some suggestions as well. First, a voice teacher told me once
that you should try not to speak much during your plane flights. Drink lots
of water whole on the plane and of course, everyday. What helps me keep my
throat moist is buying the fruit brezzes, (my favorite kind is strawberry)
from Hauls. They are not cogh drops but I really find that they help me.
Also drinking hot tea with lemon helps. I hope you have a great trip and be
safe.
Blessings,
Monica
