I’m a flight attendant – first class hot towels come with dirty little secrets

They’re meant to clean hands and face, but first-class slobs are using them to clean their dirty, weird places.

Hot towels often come as an extra amenity for premium status passengers on the plane.

But one veteran flight attendant warns that those little tepid luxuries — warm cloths typically handed out to first-class flyers shortly after boarding or just before in-flight meals are served — are covered in bodily filth left behind by travelers without tact.

“Not everyone uses them just for their hands and faces, if you know what I mean,” advised Kate, a former first class flight attendant for Emirates, in an endearing TikTok post.

“I’ve seen passengers put these wipes in all kinds of places,” she added before taking to her comments section to confirm that passengers use the washed and reused towels to remove finger jams, to wipe their loins and “stick them in all kinds of holes.”

It is a sky high slope.

But the turbulence of air travel doesn’t stop at the drab rags.

Cher, a Texas-based flight attendant, virally revealed the “dirtiest” parts of an airplane, which include window shades, bathroom sinks, carpet and seat belt straps.

Josephine Remo, a cabin crew member and travel influencer, singled out the overhead bins as breeding grounds for weapons, saying the storage compartments are “rarely cleaned” and “taken by a lot of people”.

And now, Kate’s latest revelation about not-so-sanitary towels at 30,000 feet is getting a lot of attention.

“Don’t wash my face with those again,” vowed one outraged virtual viewer, who questioned their disgust with the vomiting emoji.

“Nothing like a nice hip scrub before stripping,” teased one commenter.

“Hahaha as an ex-aircraft cleaner, I’d never touch them,” laughed one jet-setting pro.

A tickled Kate joined in the banter, writing: “Passengers traveling for 25+ hours…. they have clothes to wash.”
