However, air conditioning systems can be powered via an auxiliary power unit (APU), a smaller engine intended to power electrical systems on the ground, but that would be expensive on fuel, so most airlines avoid doing so.</p><ul style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><h3 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Recommendations and advice</strong></h3></li></ul><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> An airplane cabin is designed to heat up quickly, and the smaller the plane, the faster it will overheat. For this reason, it is advised to instruct passengers not to board the plane if the cabin temperature is higher than 29.44 degrees Celsius, and to ensure that there is an effective air conditioning system.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> See also:</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <a href="https://www.arabiaweather.com/ar/content/%D8%A3%D9%88%D9%84%D9%85%D8%A8%...
