Maintaining good hygiene habits is always essential, but it is especially crucial in places like airports and airplanes. In these environments, keeping hygiene a priority is vital.
Due to the number of travelers arriving and departing from different states and countries at airports, not everyone is traveling in good health. Some travelers may be sick, and if proper hygiene is not maintained, illnesses can easily spread.
Are you following these basic hygiene practices? Check out the list below and make sure you do if you don’t already.
Basic hygiene plan
Disinfect your seating area: Start by disinfecting your seating area, including armrests, side table, and window panes. Infected travelers can touch these surfaces and harbor harmful germs.
Use hand sanitizer: Airplanes have many surfaces that are touched by hands, making them hotbeds for germs. Use hand sanitizer regularly to reduce the risk of infections.
Maintain oral hygiene: A dry mouth can breed bacteria, which leads to bad breath and mouth infections. Rinse your mouth, chew gum or drink water to stimulate saliva production.
Wear a mask: Keep your mask on at all times, covering both your mouth and nose, to help prevent viral infections.
Moisturize regularly: Dry air on a plane can dehydrate your skin, leading to irritation and inflammation. Apply a good moisturizer as needed.
Despite these precautions, it is essential to bathe properly after the flight. Pay special attention to areas such as the hands, feet, armpits, head and around the ears.
