What is the Purpose of FC Towel Service?
What the heck is the point of the FC hot towel service? Is it to magically kill the germs on my hands with 140 degree water or just to refresh my hands and face (I throw in face here because some people appear to bathe with it for thirty seconds). I would prefer a squirt of hand sanitizer or a free Clorox wipe instead of water being flung over my laptop keyboard and tray table.
Just a random though -- please don't flame me because this isn't a topic worthy of discussion, was just curious to see if there was some rhyme / reason for this practice (my thoughts are that this probably has roots back into the golden age of air travel).
