Although if what I learnt from QI is to be believed[0], the internal air quality is now much worse than when smoking was allowed because they don't recycle the air through filters as much (if at all) these days.

Depends which airline and which plane.

Airbus 350 and Boeing 777 have much better air, higher pressure than older planes.
