The experienced flight attendant advises the guests not to touch the button on the aircraft toilet to rinse with their bare hands: "To be honest, it is quite unsanitary and disgusting."Instead, you should use a handkerchief or the like.
If you have a window seat, it is best not to lean your head against the window pane while sleeping."You are not the only one who does it and you don't know how many people or children have wiped off their hands or other things on the window," says Tommy.Therefore, many bacteria could be on the window.

It is also important to drink enough water, explains Tommy in the video.You should take about half a liter on every flight.If it still happens that you get sick during a flight or feel uncomfortable, you shouldn't hesitate to address the aircraft personnel: "We are there to help you."
