Saw these included in the CleanCare Kits along with another one with the J meal on AC 144 from YYC-YYZ. Very nice improvement over the regular wipes.

I'm posting here as the article specifically mentions AC flights. I'm curious how AC CleanCare+ is working given this info.
This article is also relevant to posts from almost a year ago in this thread, for example this quote from a more detailed post from May 2020:
QUOTE: (bolding mine)
"That was also when Canada started recording an increase in COVID-19 infected airline passengers from Delhi, with 13 landing in Toronto between Feb 4. and Feb 14.increasing to 21 between March 4 and March 20 and 23 flights between March 21 and April 1, according to two-week Health Canada data.
While India banned international flights last month, Canada is one of 13 nations exempted via an ‘air bridge’ arrangement between the two governments.
Toronto sees two regular daily flights from Delhi, via Air Canada and Air India.
Passenger manifests provided to the Sun show these flights are regularly booked to capacity — AC 43, a 63-row Boeing 777 that touched down in Toronto from Delhi early Thursday morning, flew with 364 passengers in its 400 available seats.....
.....In December, Canada temporarily banned passenger flights from the UK in response to the UK B.1.1.7 variant, followed by a suspension of flights servicing popular sun destinations on Jan. 29 and mandatory COVID-19 testing and hotel quarantines for arriving international passengers.
These measures have done little to stem the tide of passengers bringing COVID-19 into the country, averaging about 100 infected flights every two weeks."

The care program won't do much to protect crews or passengers. It doesn't address the bigger issue which is the source of the infection: People.
......AC can spray all the chemicals it wants, people can wear their masks, but the key piece is to identify the people who have the virus in their bodies and to isolate them until they clear the infection.

Biscoffs were not in any of the recent AC CleanCare bags. They've been replaced by 2 Loris brand wipes.
The styrofoam pretzels were still in the bag.
Single use wipes are no longer on the counter in the lav.

They never had single use wipes in the lav, those were disposable hand sani packs afaik. They were come and go throughout the months on flights in the J lav.

Posting in this thread because clearly my AC flight was not "CleanCare+". Or at least some pax weren't.
Just saw the recent list from the B.C. CDC and one of my flights this past week is on the list for Covid exposure. Not nearly as exciting as being on the AC 15 tail strike into HKG, but considering all the AC flights I've done in the Now Times, the is the first time one of mine is on the list.

Is there a comparable Canadian-made product, from a manufacturer that can supply ten thousand kits per day with room to scale up 5-10x over the next year?
