Flight attendants share dirtiest things on planes - including first class beds

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Flying can be an exhilarating experience, but it can also be rather unsavoury. Being packed into a metal cabin with hundreds of other people is hardly the epitome of cleanliness, and some aspects of flying can be even less sanitary than others.Travel experts at eShores have teamed up with two experienced flight attendants to expose the dirtiest parts of an airplane - and how best to avoid them.

Kamila Jakubjakova, who has been a flight attendant for more than three years, advises against drinking plane water and suggests bringing your own bottled water instead.While the quality varies between airlines, a Healthline report discovered microorganisms in some airplane water, including total coliform bacteria.

Kamila notes that while the water may not be top-notch, it does have to adhere to certain hygiene standards.She said: "Bottled water would be my first choice as the water tanks don't get cleaned often due to time constraints.

Although the aircraft water is not the best quality, they still have to follow the hygiene and sanitation standards." Another thing you should always bring is your own blanket or travel pillow.
