Reclining in your seat and squishing those behind you came in as the worst offence taking a huge 37% of the latest Cheapflights.co.uk poll “Which bad-mannered flier’s habits do you find most offensive?” suggesting that space and comfort are of most importance to fliers. These was the outcome of
Being kicked in the back of your seat (28%) was the second most offensive in-flight habit reinforcing the idea that comfort is a priority to fliers. Drinking too much and displaying drunken behaviour in-flight (9%) came in next demonstrating that a plane should perhaps not be regarded as a pub and fliers should respect their fellow travellers by showing some restraint on the alcohol front to avoid confrontation.
Feel free, however, to satisfy your hunger with fish sandwiches or a spicy sausage. People eating whiffy food came last, taking only 1% making it clear that people are less happy to have their space invaded than their nostrils when on a plane. Other habits featured in the poll were stray elbows digging into your neighbour (8%), constant chattering and excess luggage (both 5%) and attempting to be the in-flight DJ by playing your music too loud (3%).
