Hey everyone! I am traveling with my green cheek this weekend. This will be her fifth time on a plane so she is very used to the whole routine and is a very good bird while traveling.

my concern this time is COVID. I want to wipe down/disinfect my seat and especially my tray table at the beginning of the flight but I’m not sure how to go about this. I can’t take any significant amounts of liquid on the plane and I worry about fumes from alcohol wipes. Anyone have any bird safe ideas? Anything helps thank you!

Do you have F10? You could saturate a folded paper towel or napkin with F10 disinfectant and place it into a small ziplock bag. Bring several of them, together in a bigger bag, so they don't take up too much space. Use them as needed and discard afterwards.

F10 is a veterinary disinfectant. It is safe around birds and a good product to have even under normal circumstances.

I had asked on the f10 website if the product kills COVID, they replied yes...
I checked that out a while back too for my mum as she has to disinfect her car in between every student and bleach will kill the interior of her car so I advised she use F10... she is the only driving instructor around that still has a perfect dashboard and non damaged interior- all the others say the bleach is eating and ruining the materials in their cars.
