In Independent Traveler’s article relating to travel, they speak on some of the don’ts when traveling by air. Some of the things they speak of are the simplicity of one’s goal when traveling by air but the many safety checkpoints one must traverse through. One of the tips they suggest is to avoid new medicine as it may provide unknown complications as well as don’t avoid the safety briefing as it may provide important information.
Key Takeaways:
- To be a safer and more courteous traveler, don’t make the following 11 airplane mistakes. Avoiding some of these behaviors will keep you from getting on your fellow fliers’ nerves; avoiding others could even save your life.
- No one is going to laugh at your one-liner about guns, weapons or anything else that could be taken as threatening — particularly not the flight attendants, who have the power to remove you from a flight if they think there’s even the slightest chance you might pose a security risk. (Note: The same advice goes for customs people and TSA agents.)
- With airplane seats getting smaller and smaller, passengers with broad shoulders or long legs almost can’t help spilling over the bounds of their seats at some point. But we’re speaking out against intentional (and obnoxious) behaviors like manspreading, hogging the armrests or flipping your ponytail over the back of your seat so it obscures the video screen of the person behind you.
