Abstract

Introduction: This review aims to assess the safety and efficacy of the use of ultraviolet-C technology for disinfecting aircraft and compare it with other methods currently used in the aviation industry.

Methods: The authors conducted a comprehensive, systematic review of the literature on disinfection of aircraft. Independent double reviews were conducted and consultations with a third reviewer were performed in the event of disagreements.

Discussion: Although infectious disease transmission in aircraft cabins has been shown to be low, a recent study has described reports of passengers on commercial aircraft infecting other passengers. Incorporating ultraviolet-C technology into aircraft disinfection protocols holds the potential to add a significant level of risk mitigation to effectively reduce disease transmission and enhance safety.
