It is well known, the plane is not the cleanest place in the world. When you think about it, hundreds of people share their time in a very confined space for hours. So here are some precautions to take if you want to avoid microbes and so also try to respect the cleanliness of the places for others.
Skytrax’s World Airline Awards recently announced the cleanest airlines of 2018 after passengers rated various airlines’ “standards and quality of cleanliness in the aircraft cabin.” The cleanliness of seats, tables, carpets, cabin panels, and washrooms contributed to the final results.
Here are the top ten:
- ANA All Nippon Airways
- EVA Air
- Asiana Airlines
- Singapore Airlines
- Japan Airlines
- Cathay Pacific Airways
- Qatar Airways
- Swiss International Air Lines
- Hainan Airlines
- Lufthansa
The annual Skytrax awards, often called the Oscars of the aviation industry, rely on passengers to rank airlines for qualities like staff and in-flight entertainment.
