Microbiologists found an average of 2,155 colony- forming units (CFU) per square inch (6.4 sq. cm) on tray tables and “just” 265 CFU per square inch on the lavatory flush button. There are three other parts of planes that are just as germ-filled. The first area is the lavatory. With about one restroom per 50 passengers, it’s one of the germiest places on a plane and a breeding ground for bacteria. It is advised against directly touching anything in the lavatories, and is suggested to use paper towels when touching the faucet or toilet seat lid. Another area to avoid touching on planes is the seatback pockets which passengers often use as a trash receptacle. Bacteria can survive in seatback pockets for up to a week. The next area to avoid is in-flight magazines because they’re only “cleaned” once every quarter when they are replaced.
