I sleep like a sloth on the old A330 when I get efficiently awaken by a substantial load of fresh fruit salad poured all over me. The tiny trolley dolly with a now empty bowl in her hands looks at me in disgust how messy I dare to sit around in a clean SQ plane. She tersely explained: "you moved while you were sleeping, I just tried to serve your seat neighbor". A deed so noble that it evidently warrants balancing a substantial amount of very sticky liquid just above another vic.., I mean, passenger.

Neither did she apologize (I mean after all, it was entirely my fault in her eyes) nor did she provide any further aid beyond bringing me (no, I do not joke) two dry paper towels.

I go, scavenge the bathroom of all towels and flush myself until I feel less sticky. It's a good thing that SQ wakes up coach passenger some 4 hours before touch down, so I had enough time to dry.

I still looked like an escaped POW after the clean up but I was considerably less gooey.

Even on mediocre carriers such as LH, UA, or AA, I got duty free vouchers or cleaning vouchers for harmless Coke and wine spills. But for the inundation I was provided with chez SQ admitting that the passenger was not the main culprit was obviously out of the question.
