Is it pretty normal to have occasional juice leaking out of the air flow hole on a nautilus? Every now and again I think the coils get a bit too juiced up and I get some leakage. I've been blowing in to push the excess out when this happens. Is that the best way to fix the problem or is there a way to prevent this altogether?

No, not in my opinion.
Occasionally remove head from base and thoroughly dry the chamber in the base underneath the head.
You can also turn it upside down so the wicking holes are below the juice level and press the fire button for 2 ~ 5 seconds to burn off excess juice.
Blowing through the drip tip could make the problem worse, by over pressurizing the tank which will push more liquid into the head.
Best is to figure out the reason the head is keeps getting flooded and fix it.
Could be the head isn't tight in the base, missing or damaged head to base o ring, too strong of a draw for the airflow setting, always let off the fire button before you stop inhaling, this clears the air tube preventing condensation build up.

What Elvis said.
Watch your draws - too hard draws on small holes suck in too much juice, and excess can then leak.
Wipe the base.
Look up some threads here on ECF about the Nautilus as such, there are tons of info there.
Vape on!

Thanks for the advice! It's happened a few times so far, hopefully I can figure out why and fix it.
