(Health-NewsWire.Net, April 23, 2015 ) Westendorf, Tirol -- Travel by plane is one of the safest modes of transportation, but not necessarily the most hygienic. The sheer volume of people and number of flights precludes intensive cleaning. An antifungal soap of tea tree oil is an essential item to take along. It's an effective whole body wash and shampoo for when travelers reach their destination.
"Tea tree oil is a natural antifungal, antibacterial and antiviral," said Helga Riedmann, founder of Mountainbreeze Naturals. "Hand sanitizers utilize alcohol that dries the skin. Tea tree oil is a natural botanical alternative to the chemicals and alcohol in hand sanitizers."
There are many facets of airline travel that even experienced travelers are not aware in regard to cleanliness. Fungi, bacteria and viruses can live in the air and on objects for days. E. coli is a common contaminant on airplane tray tables and can live for 96 hours on armrests. Staph bacteria can live for up to 168 hours. Air passengers should be concerned about the following:
1. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) doesn't regulate, monitor or inspect onboard cleanliness. Airlines are allowed to establish their own standards.
2. The interior is tidied between flights and may be disinfected during long layovers, but in-depth cleanings are typically reserved for when major maintenance is performed.
3. Airline officials from multiple companies have admitted to scaling back cleaning procedures and schedules to save money, but have indicated deep cleanings will be performed more often than the previous standard of once every 18 months.
4. First-class seating typically receives cleaning of tray tables and windows between flights, but coach seating doesn't get the same service until an overnighter.
5. Blankets, headphones, pillows and other amenities are not cleaned or disinfected after each use, exposing passengers to an extensive variety of infectious illnesses.
6. Tests performed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) demonstrated that illness producing bacteria often lives in the water holding tanks on planes. The EPA has warned adults over 50, children and those with less than perfect immune systems to avoid plane water/beverages and drink bottled water.
7. Many passengers travel during the early stages of an illness without being aware that they could be contagious.
8. Don't worry too much. Passengers equipped with an emergency kit that includes antifungal soap with tea tree oil have a distinct advantage.
Fact is, It's impossible to avoid bacteria, fungi and viruses., A http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=mountainbreeze+naturals">bottle of tea tree oil antifungal soap is a known to prevent fungal infections.
