An unclear answer to my own question, from

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Frontier Airlines aircraft on which a Texas woman flew from Cleveland Hopkins International Airport to Dallas on Monday hours before she tested positive for Ebola is back in service.

But its destination is unclear.

During a news conference Wednesday at Cleveland City Hall, Airport Director Ricky Smith said that the flight was headed to Denver. A city spokesman later clarified that it was bound for Atlanta.

And according to flight tracking websites, the aircraft with the tail number N220FR -- the tail number of the aircraft that flew the woman from Cleveland to Dallas -- is due in Atlanta at around 6:30 p.m.

But Tyri Squyres, vice president of marketing for Frontier, said in a phone interview after the news conference that reports from the city were incorrect and that the flight is actually headed to Fort Lauderdale, Fla., with passengers on board.

Yet, a Frontier Airlines website shows an aircraft with the tail number N220FR going to Atlanta and then Denver.

Since the infected passenger was on board, the plane was cleaned once and decontaminated twice using "aggressive cleansers" and focusing on the hard surfaces and the lavatory, Squyres said.

She could not, however, describe exactly how a plane is decontaminated or how the process differs from a typical cleaning. A statement issued by Frontier Wednesday morning suggests that the procedures are similar, if not the same.
