The Return of Customer Service? Airlines Keep Planes Cleaner

January 29, 2009 | Posted in: American, Customer Service, United

Have you noticed cleaner airline interiors?

According to a report in the Chicago Tribune, they’re working on it – and I think that’s just great.

Apparently, United got tired of seeing their airline interiors rank poorly in customer service surveys – and they decided to do something about it: starting last fall the airline “overhauled both how it tackles dirt and stains on its jets and how often it does so.” This new system began at O’Hare and is now being used at 13 other airports.

American is among other airlines cleaning up again, and has seen complaints about dirty planes fall by 40%.

You’re all on the right track. Now, can we talk bag fees?
