That being said, my experience with both GNE and Arriva, is that they don't seem to bother cleaning them that often. I have used both operators on the first bus of the morning on several occasions, and I've found the the remains of spilled drink and god knows whatever else on them.
I was thinking about the leather seats on aircraft.
Usually wiped clean prior to boarding, for each trip the aircraft does. No greasy finger prints and a pleasant environment.
Now obviously it isnt possible to do this every time a bus gets a new passenger, but it would be nice to think that they were cleaned to an extent.
