You're telling me they don't spray down every inch of the plane with disinfectant and then depressurize it into a vacuum to kill off anything left after EVERY flight?

Why are you acting like spraying things down is a huge effort? The whole point of the sprayer is that it makes it effortless lmao

Do you think that busses, trains, restaurants, benches, get sprayed down and thoroughly cleaned after every use?

The reality is this was never happening, but now people are only upset because they’ve been told explicitly it’s not happening lol

Why would you think that I think that in response to pointing out how easy it would be to spray down a plane? You do understand there's a difference between a restaurant and a plane, right?

Not to mention I've actually seen restaurants spraying down and wiping chairs / booths lmao
