Hi there! OP here. I bought the ginger ale before my first flight, and opened it in the second airport. I didn't realize that the turbulence we experienced would be enough to shake it that much. When I opened it to drink, it sprayed everywhere. My shorts were soaked, and my arms were covered. I went into the bathroom and cleaned up as best I could, but my shorts were still damp when I got on my second flight. Basically, I had a moment of absentmindedness that totally sucked. I won't be doing that again...

I'm gonna go ahead and assume it wasn't a shower you asked for.

Well, you're stuck. Probably to your chair.

Many airports have shower facilities. If you have time maybe wash yourself off?

That's when you start tossing your hair around in the ginger ale shower like you're in a shampoo commercial.

A little sticky but at least you'll smell delicious.
