With higher humidity, the air would have a higher amount of water in it, which means it would be ~~denser~~ less dense and provide ~~more~~ less resistance. It also means that it uses less energy to travel, and because it would run out of energy slower, it also drops differently compared to a much lower or much higher humidity
