Do your kids wear a face mask in the plane for avoiding getting sick?

I published another post about this subject, and while reading a little on the internet, I've seen some suggestions for kids wearing a mask KN95 on the plane and the airport to avoid viruses. It will be probably a 20 hours trip. What do you think about it??

UPDATE> Thank you all for all the answers. I really appreciate it. The point is my little one gets sick pretty often with a cold during school time and some day trips. Usually it's just running nose and cough due to allergic rhinitis. But sometimes I guess it is viral, since there's low fever involved. It just happened 3 times, but still my kid needed a day off then. So I will probably follow your ideas of at least having a mask (the child one someone mentioned) just in case I see it is necessary. Hopefully everything runs smoothly. Thank you all!

What to do for avoiding fevers...what to do if they get sick in the middle of the trip???

Hi, I am travelling with my 5yo to the freezing weather of Finland in March, more specifically, the North Pole, Rovaniemi. It will be my kid's first time in the snow. I am planning all activities that are different for us: playing in the snow and making our snowman, reindeer ride, huskies ride, a tour to a zoo completely in the snow, the snow hotel, snow sauna, ice fishing, snow playground (snowman world), igloo dinner, try to see aurora on our own... well I guess you all got tthe point... the problem is I have to book almost all programs in advance, and I am really really worried about the fact my little one getting sick in the middle of it. It will be just 6 days and it will be very expensive for me. I've got a travel insurance, which I am not sure would cover all the expenses if we had to cancel it, but probably most, but my main concern is that we would not be able to repeat it later and I really want to take the most of our trip.

So any advice for stopping my little one from getting sick???

Any advice if my kid gets sick what I should do??
