Durchgangsreinigung

Deutsch > Englisch Technik Luft- und Raumfahrt Facility management / cleaning
This is from a cleaning manual for planes - company doing the cleaning is ISS facility management, but I have so far been unable to locate this term...T cleaning - what does the elusive T stand for - transit cleaning?? Any ideas?
2. Durchgangsreinigung (TC)
2.1 Zweck
Die Durchgangsreinigung (TA) wird auf allen Flugzeugen bei einer Bodenstandzeit bis zu XX Stunden durchgeführt. Die Durchgangsreinigung stellt von der Reinigungsintensi-tät her, die niedrigste Reinigungsstufe dar und dient zur augenscheinlichen Beseitigung der Verschmutzungen im Flugzeug. Bei dieser Reinigungsart werden nur die notwen-digsten Reinigungen im Zuge einer Sichtreinigung, also der Entfernung vom Fluggast leicht erkennbaren leichten Verschmutzungen, durchgeführt, so dass geringe Boden-standzeiten gewährleistet werden können. „Leicht erreichbar“ schließt z.B. das öffnen von Fächern, saugen von Sitztaschen, reinigen von Telefonfächern oder Schienen aus.

quick transit cleaning

"World at work: Aircraft cabin cleaning

TASKS OF THE JOB
Airline companies usually contract out cabin cleaning to aircraft services companies.

There are basically three levels of cleaning services for the aircraft:

quick transit cleaning,
overnight (lay-over) cleaning, and
deep cleaning.

The types of services rendered depend on the duration of stay of the aircraft at the airport. The tasks in a typical quick transit cleaning involve: (1) seat cleaning, (2) seat pocket cleaning, (3) ashtray cleaning, (4) galley cleaning, (5) toilet cleaning and replenishment, (6) floor cleaning, and (7) blanket management. Lay-over cleaning is more thorough and in addition to the above processes includes: (1) floor vacuuming, (2) window cleaning, (3) stowage cleaning, and (4) cleaning of the cabin crew resting area. Deep cleaning includes all the above tasks but in a more extensive manner."

agree Melanie Nassar : transit cleaning, and TA (if it's not a mistake) could be turnaround cleaning

"Trip-ready cleaning"
is clearly a possibility for the USA:

Interior Trip Ready: This type of cleaning refers to an aircraft cleaning that is very basic but still needs a little attention before a flight. Whether you own a detail company or are the person responsible for taking care of the aircraft’s cleaning and maintenance, these are the following procedures you should take.
* Remove Trash, Dust Cockpit and Clean Efis Screens, Clean Windshield, Side Windows And Mirrors with Lexan And Plexiglass Approved Products Like Plexiclear. Wipe Down All Wood And Tables, Vacuum Carpets.

And here's another option, from a British site:
Innovative commercial cleaning services to a variety of requirements now means we are able to offer a whole range of interior aircraft cleaning standards - **from cabin tidy**, through to nightstop cleans, including **'pitstop'** cleans and full turnaround requirements.

(aircraft) cabin cleaning

Seems to be a usual term at airports for this fast cleaning job during arrival and the next take off. There are a lot of examples on the Internet.
Example sentence:

Aircraft cabin cleaning is a unique type of cleaning work characterised by a high concentration of physical activities in time and space that are not fully under the direct control of the service providers and their workers.
