An experienced flight attendant has revealed that the cabin crew will never drink the water on a plane - and the reason will make you think twice about doing it too.
According to research by Healthline, tests have often found tap water on planes to be unsanitary and the quality to vary greatly between airlines.
In fact, testing found the presence of microorganisms in the water, including bacteria, leading to researchers advising passengers never to drink the tap water - including for tea and coffee, as reported by the Express.
It suggests to also avoid washing your hands in the toilets and to use hand sanitiser instead. Jay Robert, a flight attendant and founder of Fly Guy, revealed the cabin crew will never touch the tap water on board,
