Hi.... from the airport description i can gather that you are suffering from a condition which is called as gastro esophageal reflux disease where in the contents of the stomach regurgitate or reflux into the foodpipe also known as  the oesophagus and then back into your throat causing your symptoms . it is important for you to undergo an upper  gastrointestinal endoscopy  to look for and grade the reflux if the reflux is of severe grade and persistent then you might need a surgery called as  fundoplication however if the reflex is of mild to moderate severity  then it can be treated by medications
