Airplane travel with oxygen: O2 levels drop, any suggestions?

UPDATE: We traveled this past week for the first time since the mask requirement was lifted and what a huge difference it made in my DH oxygen level. His level remained above 90 the entire time so he didn't need to use his inogen machine. With a mask on (without the machine) it would drop to the 60's and his heart rate would remain about 115 bpm. He always said that if Covid didn't kill him, the mask would. We will keep taking it along with us, but I sure hope the mask mandate stays lifted!

I admire you and your husband because I am still so freaked out at my levels dropping below 80 that I refuse to fly for fear of being away from medical attention and I am on 02 - I agree w/ your hubby on the mask . I cannot began to tell you how much this disease has changed me . I cannot be in small places for more than a few minutes . I admire you both and stay well. Blessings
