During air travel, tourists should avoid drinking bottled beverages at all costs, ie those that are not packaged because they are “disgusting”. Stewardess Kate Camalani, who is known for her videos about the work of airline staff, shared details of TikTok.
In one of her viral videos, she told travel enthusiasts about one particular product they should avoid on board. “Never, never consume these products on a plane. Rule number one: never drink liquids that are not in a jar or bottle.
While it may be tempting to ask the flight attendants for a free cup of tea or coffee to make the trip a little more enjoyable, Kate did not recommend doing so. “The reason is that these water tanks are never cleaned. We rarely drink coffee or tea. The liquid comes from one water tank, so when you drink this coffee and tea, it comes from this hot water, and it’s disgusting, “she said.
She went on to say that tanks “are seldom cleaned unless they are broken”. Part of the car is removed and cleaned between flights, but the whole car is never cleaned.
Kate then shared another reason why coffee or tea is a less attractive option as a beverage on board an airliner. All tanks are located near the toilet.
She then gave “professional advice” to parents traveling with young children: “Never ask for hot water or pour it into a baby’s bottle. Ask for bottled water and then hot water in a cup. Pour water from a bottle into a baby container and heat in a cup of hot water.
As for the comments on the video, they were different. Some were incredibly grateful for the insider’s secret: “Thank you. My family and I are going on a trip with my little brother soon, so thank you! ” Others did not share the claims about the drinks on board: “I am a flight attendant, and my airline is fine. I drink coffee from them all the time, I’ve never been sick.”
