The airplane problem was actually the opposite, how to keep everybody warm. As you climb higher, it gets colder. Standard Lapse rate is 2 degrees C per thousand feet of elevation. Freezing level varies from the surface (or below it, and therefore not important) to a high of 24000 feet. I very rarely see it that high, but have seen it there.
