'I'm a flight attendant – there's one part of the plane I'd never touch'

While many passengers have their preferred spot on a plane, whether it's the extra legroom of an aisle seat or the views from a window seat, a seasoned flight attendant issued a stark warning about the latter choice. According to her, if you're nestling next to the window, you might just be sitting in the most unhygienic place on board.

Cher, a US-based flight attendant with five years under her belt, took to TikTok recently to reveal some of the "filthiest" areas on a plane that travellers might want to steer clear of on their next holiday. Contrary to what many might think, the top contender for the dirtiest spot isn't found in the lavatory. Instead, Cher points to the window shutters as the prime culprits.
