Worse than feet on bulkheads

Now they've considerately put their dirty jacket on the table to protect it from their dirty shoes! I don't see what the problem could be...

At least it was a dirty table to begin with …

On a recent trip, both in J, and you can pick the one who is on holiday! And both on fairly new aircraft for QF and AA.

Both are wearing “safety boots” so it’s hard to know which is on hols!

Surely a FA would ask (instruct) the pax with boots on the bulkhead to remove them.
A disgrace IMHO.

Controversially perhaps, the habit people seem to have of disembarking one row at a time, front to back.
The aisles are a road. If there's a gap, stand up - if you can grab your overhead luggage quickly enough not to impede other traffic - otherwise give way! Keep the traffic flowing!!

As a pretty infrequent flyer, I can't visualise this.
If a gap appears, that means someone up the back is holding things up, but if everyone has been disembarking front-to-back there's nobody left up-front to fill that gap?

If you mean that people aren't even getting up before the wave of disembarkment gets back to their seat and then in their stuffing-around they're holding everyone behind them up, I've not seen that to any effective degree, but I prolly only fly maybe once every two years. Mind you I can almost never just stand up & grab my bag &/or jacket and skedaddle in one smooth move, I always have to stand in at least the footwell of the aisle-seat grabbing my stuff for at least a few seconds, maybe I'm the problem!

It's not on a plane, but I think it meets the criteria for inclusion here....

Gross part 1 were she eats the pizza after the foot scratching.

This couple made a point of telling the crew they’d flown to Broome to buy a new yacht.

I can only imagine their horror at learning they were travelling on an all Y config aircraft.

How is one to stretch out or lie down in these oppressive conditions darling?

Another "not on a plane", but this woman takes the cake - literally!
After consuming her own breakfast, thought it completely acceptable to load up 3 large plates of pastries/fruits etc to take away


Until she was spotted by staff, lots of hand gestures and "negotiating" but she didn't win.
Staff member charged her for the excess she felt she was entitled to.

Can't say I agree with you on this one.

Once you get to the front of the queue, you then become the person blocking the aisle for the next person to get up.

What you are advocating is what we had before, everyone gets up soon as the seatbelt lights are off.

In reality I guess it doesn't really matter, what's 5-10 minutes in the scheme of things, especially if you have checked bags.

Now I think about it, I don’t really understand hussyboy’s point, if we’re disembarking from the front first then there’re no people left to slot into available gaps ‘cos those people have already left … ?
