And this is something we've known about for a while...

Apparently the exposure to radiation is increased depending on the flight path, i.e. over the ocean vs. over landmasses.
It seems like common sense that exposure to radiation is going to hike up cancer risk. But is there something else that people are exposed to during flights that could cause an increase in cancer?
Some other kind of energy or substance? Makes me wonder.
