“Don’t get ice in your drink, don’t drink coffee, tea, or hot water on the plane, and don’t touch anything in the lavatory with your bare skin,” a Reddit user claiming to be a flight attendant commented on a viral thread from 2017. “The ice is put in a tray with a scoop, and the trays don’t get cleaned very often. Every surface on the plane is touched by hundreds of people daily and not often disinfected. We don’t have the opportunity to wash our hands at all during the beverage service.”

Most planes don't have ice makers onboard, so you might want to consider these factors affecting each airline's beverage service.

What exactly is a golden visa?

A golden visa is a type of residency permit issued by various countries. These visas are sometimes referred to as residence-by-investment programs, and they can permit foreign individuals to obtain residency rights (and in some cases, citizenship) in exchange for making a significant investment in that country, often in the form of real estate purchases.
