Chemical Spray Through The Air Vents At The End of The Flight???

I just took a flight from Santa Fe, New Mexico to Chicago yesterday, and while we were waiting to disembark at the end of the flight, something in addition to air was sprayed through the air vents.  I know this because it had a chemical stink and quickly gave me a headache.  I still feel the effects today.  What is it Southwest Airlines is using???  I will be reaching out to my congressperson, etc.  If I do not get the specific information.

What you were seeing is totally normal, and it was just the AC.  Read all about it here: Fog in Your Airplane Cabin? No Worries, It’s Cool (Literally) 

 

I can totally understand reacting weirdly to the scene, though.  That happened to me the first time I ever saw this happen!
