Zbor de groază. Pasageri atacați de polșnițe în avion pe ruta Australia-Italia
Passengers flying from Australia to Italy on Qantas faced a bedbug infestation on board, leading to flight cancellation and pest control measures. Complaints of bites arose during the flight from Perth to Rome, prompting crew to distribute antihistamines. Upon landing, the aircraft was taken out of service for thorough cleaning, and the return flight was canceled. Experts suggest the bugs likely entered via travelers' belongings. While rare, bedbugs can be difficult to eliminate due to their resistance to many insecticides. Qantas maintains regular cleaning protocols, but these do not specifically target bedbugs. The incident has sparked calls for compensation from affected passengers in Italy.
