A flight attendant has warned people against wearing shorts on a plane.

The TikTok user, posting with the handle @tommycimato, shared some tips with plane travellers and suggested that shorts will leave passengers more exposed to germs.

He said: "Don't or try not to wear shorts when you're on an airplane. You never know how clean it's gonna be, so if you have pants, you're gonna have less germs."

The social media user also gave fliers some other tips, including urging them to not lean their heads against the window if they fall asleep.

He said: "Do not fall asleep or lean your head on the window. You are not the only one that has done that and you don't know how many people or children have wiped their hands or other things all over the window."
