1 ~~~ This Airline Is Testing Out Hands-free Bathroom Doors ~ Travel and Leisure ~~~ To eliminate touchpoints in airplane restrooms, Japan’s ANA is testing out a doorknob design that passengers can operate using their elbow.
One of the germiest culprits of air travel has long been in-flight bathroom stalls, but one Japanese airline is aiming to cut down on touchpoints by testing hands-free lavatory doors.
ANA airlines is gathering feedback on a prototype of a new door at its lounge at Haneda Airport in Tokyo. If successful, the design will be implemented on flights, but a spokesperson told BBC that it’s still in the “very beginning” of testing. www.travelandleisure.com/airlines-airports/ana-airlines-japan-hands-free-plane-bathroom-doors ~ 25 August 2020 ~
