Turkish Airlines got some unexpected publicity on New Year’s Day, a prominent article in the New York Times about the free bites that the airline is offering, courtesy of a dedicated team of bedbugs.
I worry about getting head lice on airplanes. Airplanes used to have little white hankies on the headrest, which offered some protection, but I haven't seen them in a while. I would think a refund would be in order if you got headlice or bedbugs (much worse, they are hard to get rid of).
Yeah. Cockroaches are a given. I have had mice experience also. I had painstakingly baked and packed a cake for my sister and upon reaching destination found that half of it was gone. 😅
"...they’re equal opportunity biters." Insects usually are; all we are to them is food.
True. Mosquitoes seem to prefer some people, including me, over others.
Manitoba gets full of those things in the summer.

Airline seats are not beds - how can there be bedbugs? There are rules in our society.
Someone needs to tell the bedbugs.
The worst kind of bugs. Just the thought of them gives me creeps. Our Indian Railways is famous for bugs too.
I've had the Indian Railways experience -- traveling from Chennai to Madurai overnight and having to deal with cockroaches!
