HVAC on the plane

Last year I went back apartment for various days to see my sister for the first time in a year plus a half! For that amount of time, she has been living in the Ukraine.

She hasn’t been back apartment to visit, plus I haven’t been able to afford a plane ticket to go see him.

She absolutely doesn’t make it a priority to come back plus see anybody, because she hates the air travel in between the two locations. She says that the plane ride is so miserable that she would rather just stay there all the time. I decided to ask him why the plane was so uncomfortable plus she was more than delighted to tell me all about it. Not only is there the overwhelming sense of being trapped for 12 hours, but also all of the inconsiderate human sitting around you. She then went on to talk about how bad the on-board heating plus cooling systems are for economy passengers. She said the plane is extremely stagnant feeling plus the air odors honestly stale from the moment you step on board… Once you start flying, the airflow doesn’t improve. Every passenger is offered a single AC vent that they can generally aim towards their face. There’s no opening for added heating power if you were chilly or your neighbors AC outlet was blowing on you! You can only add more chilly air to your environment, without added freshness or heat. She said this made the trip especially miserable. At this point, I stopped him. There’s nothing I hate more than being chilly plus sitting in a draft. If it was me, I would not want to shiver for a 12 hour plane ride either.
