On Monday morning, rats were found in a service cart aboard an Arkia flight that had returned from Greece without passengers. The airline stated that the responsibility for the incident lies with Tamam (the aviation catering and services company), which handles inflight meal preparation and equipment. The discovery prompted internal discussions on hygiene protocols between the airline and the service provider. No passengers were on board at the time of the finding, and the aircraft was reportedly inspected after landing.
