Sanitation

In addition to thorough grooming between flights, our aircraft undergo a professional deep cleaning overnight, which includes the sanitization of all onboard surfaces using a process called fogging. Fogging uses a safe, hydrogen peroxide-based disinfecting solution to quickly and effectively sanitize all onboard nooks and crannies.
