From the linked article:
A behind the scenes look at cleaning an Air New Zealand plane reveals the job is a tough one. With an average turnaround time for an international long haul plane of just 90 minutes, a team of up to 16 races the clock to vacuum, wipe surfaces, clear rubbish, collect headsets and position safety cards. With the coronavirus outbreak, Air New Zealand has assured customers that the cleaning agents they use are effective against the virus.
When was the last time a domestic flight was cleaned? It used to be between every flights that a team of cleaners would jump on but I've not seen that happen for a few years. I wonder if this can (should?) return to help mitigate seat surfaces being a vector for the coronavirus?
