Flying Can Be a Dirty Business

With all of the delays this summer, the airlines are dealing with a lot more hostility from their customers. No air conditioning while sitting for hours on a tarmac, toilets overflowing and dirty aircraft are causing consumer groups to take action. New York has already enacted an airline passenger bill of rights that requires all airlines at New York airport to provide snacks and water, fresh air and working restroom for passengers delayed on aircraft for more than three hours. But are the cleaning crews getting time to clean when overbooked planes are flying non-stop? Many major airlines state that they are sticking with the 30-day deep clean with a wipe up by crew and maintenance staff in between.
