Airplanes have undoubtedly made commuting easier for the masses. Bringing the days worth of journey down to a few hours has been a boon for many. But sometimes these few hours of flying turn to a nightmare – thanks to the ordeals our fellow passengers put us through. While we can’t avoid getting into problems with our co-passengers altogether when we are restricted to a confined space, but what we can do is be more mature and considerate with our habits that might be causing a problem for others.
It is high time that people realize that traveling via air requires some etiquettes, following which can warrant a peaceful traveling experience for everyone. Our habits are our own, it is not at all polite to inflict them on others, that too when you are on a long journey with them in a confined space. Some people bring their annoying habits on board and make it difficult for fellow passengers to have a peaceful flight.
Here are some of the most annoying things people do on the plane that they need to stop doing ASAP!
