Is this too unpleasant to do even in the circumstances?!

[Greeanj]

We have to catch a flight this evening and our bedding is not in a good state after a night and day of sickness bug. I have no time to now wash it. Is it too awful to leave it on and wash when we return? It’s cheap bedding and I’m now wondering if we throw it out rather than leave it?!

👏👏👏

By the time you had written and read all of these posts you could’ve washed, dried and ironed the bedding 😆 poor passengers who will prob catch the bug now, can’t you fly a day later

It doesn’t take long to change a bed if you just get on with it. I would get the dirty linen off and make the bed before you go. I would either chuck the dirty stuff or put it on a wash and dry and deal with it when you get back.

That’s a great idea!

Bonkers. Just run it through a 20 minute quick wash!

Oh and yes, why on earth are you dragging your D & V bug onto a plane?

OP has not posted since the first post. So yep!

Strip the bed and leave it in a bag to wash hot on your return

In the time it took to write the message you could have stripped the bed, but you shouldn't be flying if ill but you know that don't you

If you haven't actually puked on the sheets I personally would just strip it all off and put in bags in laundry room/utility/bathroom and take out of bags and wash when you return.

As others. Should you be flying and spreading a sickness bug ? 🤮🤮🤮

options

leave the sheets they go crusty

wash the sheets and leave in machine and might go mouldy

or rewash once home

or a quick 15m wash to get rid of worst and hang over chairs /doors and wash properly when back

tho this is 2 days old so @Greeanj may not come back

How can you be conscious of needing to wash it and potentially throwing it away but not conscious of spreading it to the whole plane? It's so conflicting to have one thought but not the other unless you really are just a selfish person.

I am currently in an isolation side room in hospital because I caught a sickness bug and have a compromised immune system due to on going health issues. I've been here a week with no date to be realised in the near future.

I am missing out on contact with my family, time I can never get back.

Please don't get on that flight. Stay in doors untill everyone is 48hrs clear. What is a small inconvenience to you can literally be life or death to someone else.
