In the days when I was flying international we had to spray the cabin with DDT prior to landing. Thank you Rachel Carson.

Same woman, two different flights.

Sounds like she’s the problem, not the planes.

First hotels and now airplanes, makes travel not so much fun anymore. There was something on TV about finding bedbugs. If you pull the sheets and mattress cover back and examine the edges of the mattress before you go to bed, you likely will find evidence of the little critters there.

During my multiple flights to and from SEA during the Vietnam War I can still remember the aircraft being fumigated prior to landing in the CONUS.

There was always an internal debate - board early so I was far away from the doors (long and hot waits getting on and off), or sit near the door (minimal seat time but the smell).

Looks like the airlines are going to have to extend their turn around times for passenger health.

Hmmm which is more important - profit or passengers health?
Twenty years ago i would have answered health; but today?

DDT is the answer, but I doubt it will ever be used.

Its actually laughable. This bed bug infection is a result of leftists immigration policies. The bed bugs come first, can Zimbabawe USA be far behind with Obama in the White Hut?
We are now a third world banana Republic with no rule of law, created by Obama.
