JAKARTA - A flight attendant warned travelers not to order tea or coffee from the plane. He revealed this secret on TikTok and it went viral.

Kat Kamalani, from Utah, United States, shared tips with her 467,000 followers and told them to "never consume" the product on any plane.

The 30-year-old flight attendant says in the video: "Rule number one - never consume any liquid that is not in the can or bottle.

"The reason is, the water tank is never cleaned, and it's disgusting. So talk to the flight attendants, we rarely, rarely drink tea or coffee, because they come from the same water tank, so when you drink coffee and tea it comes from that hot water and that. really disgusting. "

He then showed me the coffee maker and said the parts of the machine would not be cleaned "unless it breaks".

"The whole machine has never been cleaned and is near the toilet," he said.

Kat then gives tips to new moms who need to make formula milk on the plane and advises them to ask for bottled water and a cup of hot water on the side.

He said it was better to make milk with cold water and warm it by placing the bottle in a cup filled with hot water.

Some followers found the tip useful. Another said he should have reported the matter to the company and asked for the water tank to be cleaned.

One said: "Since they were the one who passed it on to the passengers, they had to bring it up at the meeting. It's not difficult to do more."

"Why don't you just clean it"? others asked.

Some claiming to work in the airline industry say this does not apply to all airlines. Some of them admit to doing routine work to disinfect the water tanks.
