Every sympathy to sufferers out there, BUT it would get the f*cking plane down pretty quickly....

Sorry !

Let me try and explain.....
A person on a plane eats nuts then walks down plane touching chairs as they make their way to the toilet. One of said chairs is the one my niece is sat in. She touches chair where the nut muncher did and guess what comes next......Do you get it? She doesn't actually have to eat them!
All i can say is you are ignorant to the severity of nut allergy reactions in some people, especially young kids.

Assume your kids if you have any had a serious nut allergy and you requested no peanuts be served on a flight and someone said stuff you, would you be ok with that, i doubt it.

So what you're saying is, everyone else in the entire world needs to modify their behaviour in order not to spark off your relative's allergy? That's complete wrong-headed nonsense. What she needs is one of those hamster exercise *****, only really big.

We had the same thing on the flight back from Turkey earlier this year, I reckon it's a way for airlines to save money by not having to supply nuts!

But as far as I know, the corners of the chairs and armrests etc. aren't cleaned between every flight, so what about all the nut eaters that have merrily been touching seats and tables etc. on previous flights that day?

I am severly alergic to two things. Penicillin and Kiwi's. I have to be very carefull when ordering anything with fruit in it at resteraunts, due to the Kiwi content, as my reaction is not pleasant.

It is quite common for Kiwi sufferers to be alergic to penicillin, its something in the skin I think.

I had an Americam ham radio aerial once, and on the box it said:- Beware of overhead wires because of the danger of electrocution which could kill you!
