Ryanair? Spirit?

Delta


Is it an A220 by any chance? I was on a smelly one yesterday. The APU was broken so sometimes it can be caused by the external cart they use to start the engines.

It is not. Maybe they have a peeing bandit they haven't caught yet.






I’ll tell you a secret: all passenger planes smell like urine after they enter service. Usually the smell is fairly contained to the belly. Lavatories leak, and people miss the toilet regularly. Working in the belly of a plane, especially near the lavatories, is a smelly, sticky job.

Username checks out, I guess.



That's part of their new "Plane cleaning fee" program. Each passenger is offered the special opportunity to "upgrade" their flight experience with a recently cleaned and less horrible interior ambiance. If enough passengers opt in for this upgrade, the cabin will be cleaned. The fee is non-refundable, and the cleaning only gets done in the event that more that 75% of the passengers opt in.



The plane you're in?
