Question Spraying the passenger cabin

Hello,

I recently flew to from LHR to Sydney via Singapore (BA) and the cabin crew sprayed some kind of anti-bacterial(?) into the passenger cabin prior to us disembarking. I don't recall if it was in Singapore or in Sydney but I don't think it was both. I just wondered what that's all about. I've flown quite a lot, although mostly to the US and back and it's happened a handful of times but not often.

I understand that it's an attempt stop germs migrating to that destination country but surely it's a half-hearted attempt at best? Is the spraying mandated by the arrival country?

Many thanks in advance

It's not anti-bacterial - it's insecticide.

We obviously need to spray the forum to stop this infection spreading...

Very droll PDR1 Yes, this topic is running in Spectators Balcony and since NineEighteen started that thread six minutes before this one, I am closing this. We try to keep topics in one place so that everyone can see all the other comments, no need to start two threads.
S.o.S. is online now
