Death of the in flight magazine

The cleaners do not always seem to check if the mags onboard have had the puzzles already done or not.
That's why they generally have a message to pax telling us to take the magazines away if we've enjoyed that section. You'd think most people who complete crosswords are active readers...

I take the complete magazine (they are free to anyone who has lounge access), tear out the pages I want and dispose of the rest of the mag in the nearest recycling bin.

No need to ask lounge staff when there are hundreds of the magazine there for the taking.
We also take the whole magazine, if we want to complete the puzzles, so that the whole thing is hopefully replaced.
👍👍Exactly what people should be doing. Trust me you are doing a favour for the lounge staff and cleaners - they hate restocking and binning tens of thousands of magazines each month onboard planes and in lounges, they're incredibly heavy put together in the masses!

I remember a long time ago seeing Lufthansa wanting to charge a petty fee to take away the inflight magazine, which I thought was a bit nickely and dimely
