Description

Aircraft cleaners are responsible for keeping commercial aircraft clean and tidy. They’re often the last people to board the plane, and their duties begin as soon as passengers disembark.

Aircraft cleaners may use a variety of cleaning products and equipment to keep the interior of the plane spotless. This includes vacuums, brushes, chemicals, etc. They also have to be mindful of where they step so that they don’t track dirt or debris onto freshly cleaned surfaces.
