I hate this. Annoys me in the cinema too. Grrrrrrr.

especially now

No need to be so rude, calling people french is pretty harsh!

Except when I fly business class somehow the flight attendants are so much nicer and accommodating, had to go to the bathroom didn't realise seat belt sign was on and they were so nice about it. Same airlines, similar issue, but in economy they screamed at me. Flight attendants deserve respect and kindness but lets not pretend there isn't a discrepancy in how they treat passengers.

Child looks way too big for a bassinet.

I was on a 7 hour layover in Dubai, after catching an 8 hour flight at 11 at night. Fell asleep and when I woke up there was a guy opposite me, staring. I looked at him and he said "morning, sleepy head". Was very creepy!

Always carry good silicon industrial hearing protection. Not the little foam ones, longer triple-f****e ones. Moisten them first, then pull the back of each ear back and out while inserting the protector into the ear. Should give a nice, snug fit. They’re what I used while operating a big paper folding machine, which ran at 96dB continuously, far higher that an airplane movie soundtrack!

In the 1950s my aunt put some barbituates in her daughters bottle. Don't worry, it was the 1950's. everything was safe, even your school desk protected you from nuclear attack.

No reason for the whole family needs to be close to carousel. One adult stays close, one adult and kids stands back, when 1 adult grabs a bag, family member grabs it and goes back to rest of family with it. If you are alone with a child don’t let child out of sight and in front of you by carousel too, to easy to kidnap at an airport.

I always take my shoes off on a flight. My feet don’t stink and I make sure my socks are very clean. I sit with my feet on my seat in my own space. I put my shoes back on before using restroom.

You would think this doesn't need to be said but many news stories suggest otherwise. If nothing else, you'd think knowing you could be deplaned and/or arrested, go to jail would be enough to make folks shut up and grit their teeth. But some people "know their rights!" and insist on poking the bear.

and STAY AT YOUR PLACE

But they want to be the first to wait the same amount of time for luggages !

I agree, but damn that’s a good looking egg sandwich

Last flight I was on a guy reclined aggressively during dinner service without looking and the poor woman behind him had her wine and food go all over the floor.

I think the size of “carry ons ” needs to be smaller and stringently enforced. I know it makes it faster to get out of the airport, but some turbulence can be bad enough that the flimsy closures on the storage doors can allow for them to fall open. A) If the bag is heavy enough, it’s going to force that door open easier and B) When it comes flying out, it could injure whoever it hits. They’re overhead storage compartments, not the luggage compartment.

I didn’t get either on a recent flight but didn’t want to bother anyone- my back hurt so bad after and it was only a 2 hour flight lmao

or at least boo if it crashes

Carry on can go in overhead or under the seat in front of you. I have a soft carry on that fits under the seat. So anything I want in flight - snacks, electronics etc - I put in the soft bag so it is handy even after I sit down. This method has worked pretty well for me.

We did this on our last flight. We bought three seats so we'd have the whole row and not squish any poor person who was between us. SO much more comfortable and cheaper then flying first class. Someone asked us how we lucked out, told him we planned ahead and bought the seat. He said he'd try it next time.

Being polite costs nothing, and makes everyone happier.

This is my pet hate. For the love of all things holy, please step back from the luggage belt

We all know by now that we have to do this. Why wear a belt to have to take off and put back on again? We know our shoes are coming off. Wear ones easy to remove and put back on.

I made my flying life sooooo much easier by aquiring a document case thing which has a transparent window in the front which is just the right size for storing my boarding pass and passport so they're visible (no worrying about where I put the damn things) and easy to take out when needed.

I was on a 12 hour flight and the person behind me spent hours playing a game on the screen. Literally stabbing the screen every few seconds. My chair was bouncing every single time. It was an adult too not a child (who might not have realised) .

Do not believe in my hips

Sometimes it’s about making sure you have access to overhead luggage space. But, read the room.

And alert the flight attendants if their conversation crosses the line or they make any kind of unacceptable move or gesture. FFS people, don’t be a perv on a flight, unless you want to be jumped by the Air Marshall, the flight attendants, maybe the Captain or First Officer, and all the other passengers—-then gagged and duct taped to a seat next to the Air Marshall. The tolerance for pervs is so low nowadays it’s underground, and people are not going to put up with it.
