If it is not because of my previous  research for a post (<a title=\"Say no to pollution in school bus\" href=\"http:\/\/totobobo.com\/blog\/?p=157\">Say no to to pollution in school bus<\/a>). I wouldn&#8217;t suspect there can be polluted air circulating inside a deluxe, aircond tourist coach.<\/p>\n<p>Two weeks ago I took a SVIP coach from Singapore to Cameron Highlands. The seats inside this coach are large and the back can be lowered to almost flat- just nice for a good night sleep. The soft velvet feels comfy but I was curious to find out the air quality inside the bus.<\/p>\n<p>I put on my mask during the overnight trip. We were required to get off the bus when crossing the border, and there were a couple of pee-stops during the night. I took off my mask when I need to get out of the bus and put it back on when I am getting back in.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_167\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/totobobo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/filter-coach1.webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-167\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-167\" title=\"filter-coach1\" src=\"http:\/\/totobobo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/filter-coach1-300x176.webp\" alt=\"After 6 hours of use\" width=\"300\" height=\"176\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-167\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">After 6 hours of use<\/p><\/div>\n<p>When we reach Cameron Highland it was 7am in the morning, I was shocked to discover the gray patch collected on the filters- a clear indication of air pollution inside the coach, most likely from it\u2019s own engine! The air quality along the route up Cameron Highlands at that time should be very clean.<\/p>\n<p>To make sure I was not making this up, I decided to compare the result on a plane trip. I put on the mask with a clean set of filters on a business trip to Frankfurt. When I reach there after 12 hours, I can not see any noticeable sign of dirt. To be very sure about this, I put the same mask on during my flight back. Now it accumulated a total 24 hours of use in the plane. Judging from the color of the filter it is still very clean.<\/p>\n<p>My conclusion? The air inside that coach is MUCH worst than the air inside the plane. It seems the air filter on plane is much more effective than those on buses, if the buses have any air filter at all.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 325px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"TOTOBOBO filter after 24 hours of use\" src=\"http:\/\/totobobo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/filter-flight.webp\" alt=\"24 hours of use in a plane\" width=\"315\" height=\"184\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">24 hours of use in a plane<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Read more:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a title=\"the fitting mask for children\" href=\"http:\/\/totobobo.com\/blog\/?page_id=82\">TOTOBOBO, the fitting mask for children<\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"How to trim TOTOBOBO mask?\" href=\"http:\/\/totobobo.com\/blog\/?p=120\">How to customize TOTOBOBO mask?<\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"Advanced features of TOTOBOBO mask\" href=\"http:\/\/totobobo.com\/blog\/?page_id=93\">Advanced features of TOTOBOBO mask<\/a><\/p>\n<div><strong><a title=\"Buy totobobo mask\" href=\"http:\/\/totobobo.com\/blog\/?page_id=98\">BUY TOTOBOBO MASK<\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><a title=\"to buy TOTOBOBO mask\" href=\"http:\/\/totobobo.com\/blog\/?page_id=98\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s the best mask I&#8217;ve tried so far.&#8221; Allan Hansen &#8211; Califonia, USA Allen travel a lot and want to protect himself when he is in cities with heavy air pollution.
