Frequent travel can have several health disadvantages. Jet lag disrupts sleep patterns, leading to fatigue and decreased cognitive function. Constant exposure to new environments can weaken the immune system, increasing the risk of illness. Irregular eating habits and consumption of unfamiliar foods might upset digestion.

Long flights can contribute to deep vein thrombosis due to prolonged sitting. Exposure to different climates and allergens can trigger allergies or respiratory issues. The stress of packing, planning, and navigating can lead to anxiety and high cortisol levels. Balancing work and travel can result in burnout and disrupted routines, impacting mental well-being.
