In-flight waste

When the aeroplane we’ve been flying on lands at the destination airport and we walk towards the terminal, it is more than likely that we won’t think about the amount of waste we’ve left behind in the aircraft’s cabin. Of course, neither do we think about what is subsequently done with that amount of rubbish. A recent IATA study estimated that each passenger generates an average of 1.43 kg of waste on each flight. The exact amount, which varies between 0.83 kg and 2.5 kg in each case, depends on a variety of factors including, among other things, the flight’s duration, the class we are flying on or whether or not it is a low-cost flight.
