7 mistakes passengers make on board that drive flight attendants crazy
When we go on vacation abroad, we are used to flight attendants always being ready to solve any problem and ensure a comfortable flight for passengers. Sometimes the work of flight attendants can be unbearable, but they perform their service flawlessly and responsibly to the last.
Still, some tourists violate the norms of behavior and disturb other travelers. OBOZREVATEL has collected the most embarrassing mistakes of passengers on an airplane that annoy everyone around them.
Smoking
Despite the fact that smoking is strictly prohibited on an airplane, some passengers break the rules and endanger the lives of many people. In addition, the smell of smoke remains on board and causes discomfort to others. Usually, airplane smokers are fined up to $5,000 or arrested during boarding.
Talking loudly
Some tourists behave inappropriately because they will not be punished for their shameful behavior and are unlikely to be disembarked from the plane. Loud conversations will disturb the passengers next to you.
Abusing alcohol
When you are intoxicated, your behavior will become inadequate, and this will cause discomfort to others. Few people know that the effect of any alcoholic beverage is enhanced during the flight. The unpleasant odor and strange behavior that alcohol can cause annoys flight attendants and passengers sitting next to you.
Watching a movie or music without headphones
If you forgot your headphones at home, you should postpone watching a movie until later. Other people may not like the extra sounds in the background, as they will disturb them. Flight attendants will be forced to make a remark.
Walking barefoot or keeping your feet in a place other than the designated area
Firstly, there is a smell, and secondly, it is unhygienic to walk around the airplane cabin barefoot. Some tourists stretch their feet out on the seats of other passengers or upwards, as if they were at home on a cozy sofa.
Opening overhead luggage racks
Flight attendants are annoyed when you try to open overhead luggage racks, as it can be dangerous for passengers during turbulence. Place your belongings according to the rules: suitcases above your head and small handbags under the front seat. Keep an eye on your belongings so as not to bother others.
Walking during takeoff and landing
Sometimes passengers see the plane coming in for landing and get up from their seats to use the restroom. Such actions lead to flight delays. This behavior of tourists makes flight attendants and crew nervous.
