Talk to a flight attendant, we rarely, rarely drink the coffee or tea that comes from the same water tank.

“So when you are drinking that coffee and tea that comes from that hot water and it’s absolutely disgusting.”

The coffee machines, Kat claims, are not often cleaned. She said: “These little (coffee machines), they are rarely cleaned unless they are broken.

“The (kettles) are taken out and cleaned between flights, but the whole machine is never cleaned and they’re by the lavatories.”

Recently a flight attendant explained the kind of passenger behaviour that ruins cabin crew’s day.

The woman, who goes by Cierra Mist, detailed the number one annoying thing passengers can do is “ask (crew) to help you lift your bags.”

The cabin crew professional went on: “First of all, none of the crew is getting paid while you are boarding.

“We actually don’t even start getting paid until the airplane door shuts and the break gets lifted.”
