Flying somewhere this summer?
Kayak did a survey on the “unspoken rules” of air travel. Here are some results:
Can you recline your seat? 88% say yes…but a third say only on long-haul flights or red-eye flights
Does the person in the middle seat get both arm rests? 57% say NO…they have to share.
Can you bring smelly food on a plane? An emphatic NO from 92% of respondents.
Can you take your shoes off? A split decision…56% say no, 44% yes…but 76% agree your socks should stay on.
Can you put your feet up? Nope…68% say you should never put your feet up against the seat in front of you.
Can you talk to someone if they’ve got headphones on? Another hard NO…94% say it’s the equivalent of wearing a “do not disturb” sign.
Can you laugh loudly while watching a movie? 58% say no…chuckles are fine, though.
Can you make a phone calls once you’ve landed? 69% say wait until you’re off the plane.
