Flight Attendants Reveal Secrets About Flying

空服员爆料飞机上的秘密

【背景扩展】

4名空服人员揭露了飞机上的小秘密。比如: 飞机上煮咖啡和冲厕所用的是同一种水；以及如何不买票却享受到头等舱待遇等等。

What is potable water? How is it used on a plane?

It’s the water we used for the lavatories, and for the coffee. The same water. I’ll leave that up to you if you wanna drink your coffee.

I wouldn’t drink the coffee on a plane. They don’t clean the tubes where the water goes. So you’re drinking all of that. So if you want water, get if from the bottled water (瓶装水).

What is the dirtiest part of an airplane?

Definitely the floor. The floor gets used and abused. People are walking all around that floor, bringing stuff in, taking stuff off, dropping things.

Do not walk barefoot on that airplane. Especially going to the lavatory.

Everyone’s always walking around barefoot, and getting like, fungus (真菌) or something.

I see people walk in barefoot in the lavatory. And I’m like, oh, that’s a lot of confidence.

Bring your own Clorox wipes (消毒湿纸巾). No guarantee if those tray tables (托盘桌) or seats get cleaned after every flight.

In between flights, they do clean, but what they mean by cleaning is they vacuum the carpet and… They do wipe down the lavatories, but every single tray table, no, they don’t wipe that down. They only do that only if the plane is like, sitting in the airport for like, overnight or something.

How can a passenger get into first class?

Well, they can buy a ticket.

Upgrade your life. (laughs) Work harder. You gotta buy a ticket, man. There’s just no way.

Or, they can ask a flight attendant. Never hurts to ask. If they can talk their way into it, some of them, and they ask nicely, they can get into first class. I’ve seen it done before.

We’re not supposed to, but if you’re really cute, we just say, “hey, come over. I’d rather have you over here.”

If you guys are gonna be asking, you ask before the plane takes off.

If you wanna get anything free on a airplane, it’s actually pretty easy. Just be super nice to your flight attendants. If you’re having like, a drink or two, I’ve met a lot of flight attendants that would just be like, “oh, I’ll come back and charge you later.” And they never come back.

什么是饮用水？在飞机上是如何使用的？

那是我们用于洗手间的水，以及煮咖啡的水。一样的水。至于你想不想喝咖啡就由你自行决定了。

我不会在飞机上喝咖啡。他们无法清洗水流入的管道，所以你正喝下所有那些东西。因此如果你想喝水，可以喝瓶装水。

飞机上最脏的部分是什么？

绝对是地板。

地板被使用并且滥用。人们在地板上走来走去，带东西上机，拿东西下去，掉东西。

不要在飞机上打赤脚走路。特别是去洗手间。

每个人总是赤脚走来走去，并且染上像是香港脚或其他东西。

我看到人们赤脚走进洗手间。我想，噢，真是太有自信了。

随身带上你自己的Clorox消毒湿纸巾。无法保证每趟航班之后，所有的托盘桌或座椅都被清理干净。

在航班之间，的确有打扫，不过所谓的清理是指他们会吸地毯，擦拭洗手间，不过每个托盘桌，没有，他们不会每个都擦拭。他们只会在飞机停在机场一整夜之类的，才会这么做。

乘客如何进入头等舱？
