Flying is an overall unpleasant experience. The seats are too small, the food is gross and there is always the chance of getting sick, but worst of all is a rude and inconsiderate seat mate. Next time you fly the "friendly" skies, remember to mind your manners, and avoid these annoying behaviors. If you are a good example, others will not only appreciate it, but learn a thing or two!
- Do not adjust, itch or touch yourself: If things are squished and need adjusting, or your rear is itchy, take it to the bathroom! No one wants to see this ... EVER!
- Don't talk too much ... especially on an early morning flight: Pleasantries are acceptable, but if you are on a 6 a.m. flight, chances are your seat mate does not want to chat until coffee has been served and the plane has been in the air for at least an hour!
- Don't bring stinky or loud snacks from home: Yhe plane is not the place to eat an egg salad sandwich or crunchy chips – it's just rude.
- Don't let your kids run wild: Not everyone thinks your babies are perfect angels. Bring activities to keep them engaged so they don't annoy other passengers.
- Don't take off your shoes: You are not in your living room – wear comfortable shoes and leave them on! (Frisky)
