A recent investigation highlights the alarming unsanitary conditions on airplanes, revealing high levels of bacteria on surfaces such as armrests, tray tables, and safety manuals. Conducted by a content creator on TikTok, the study involved swabbing various surfaces on a Southwest Airlines flight. Compared to previous experiments at airport gates, the airplane findings were more disturbing. An American Airlines flight attendant recommended protective clothing as a proactive measure against germs, highlighting travelers' increasing concerns about cleanliness while flying.
It’s fashionable, yet health-forward advice that an American Airlines flight attendant also offered travelers, saying, 'The more you cover the surface of your skin, the more protection for your largest organ.'
The investigator revealed disturbing findings from his airplane swab tests, which indicated that not only the armrests but also the window shades, tray tables, and safety manuals are riddled with harmful germs.
