How clean is your plane?

British Airways CLEAN YOUR CABINS.

I've reposted a couple of other people's photos here (with permission). I encourage you all to take photos of particularly dirty (or outstandingly sparkling clean) cabin interiors and post them with the flight number and date.

Thanks. I was just on the babybus which was immaculate.

Yes, I know it has been brought up before but the cleanliness of BA's planes leaves much to be desired.

Agreed they should bloody well get on with doing something about it. Sod Twitter and Failbook support, get the planes to be cleaner!

It appears to be going from bad to worse.

How will BA be able to justify higher prices / redemption rates if it allows its standards to collapse ?

ClubClassCowboy, I actually thought of you while I was on a Lufty flight earlier this week. The plane was spotless - you would have loved it.

Those germ free Germans Thanks for thinking of me (I think!)

I don't think it is just me that dislikes the grime so much. I have worked as a cleaner in a hospital and I have seen that it is possible to get good results without spending vast amounts more money, as usual it's about technique and training.

For some reason I keep thinking about Hitchhikers Guide where the Golgafrinchans send all their telephone hygienists and hairdressers into space, only to be wiped out by a plague spread through public telephones. But that's just me

I missed this thread before, but what a jolly good idea it is.

Like the Scottish school girl blogging and posting about her appauling school lunches, we'll highlight the filthy offenders in the BA fleet!

Top work ClubClassCowboy

I'm thinking about switching a lot of short-haul travel to LH now (where possible) due to, among other things, the beautifully clean cabins.
