In the CDC's "Ebola Guidance for Airlines" guide, the agency says Ebola spreads through "direct contact by touching the blood or other body fluids (like feces, saliva, urine, vomit, semen) of a person who is sick with Ebola.

In the same guide, the CDC also suggests cleaning upholstery, carpet or storage compartments if "they are obviously dirty."

In the "special considerations" sections, the CDC says, "Special cleaning of upholstery, carpets, or storage compartments is not indicated unless they are obviously dirty from blood or body fluids."

The guide says special vacuuming is not necessary.

When cleaning the aircraft and any contaminated areas after a flight with a sick traveler who may have Ebola, CDC suggested using "disposable protective equipment" while cleaning the cabin and restrooms.
