I saw an article on Yahoo called “Six Things You Should Never Do On Airplanes.” It was all pretty boring stuff like “Kick the seat in front of you,” and “Get too friendly.”
Here is my list of 11 things you should never do on airplanes that I have actually SEEN done on airplanes. Yes friends I witnessed these with my own eyes (or my own nose for #10 and #11) on airplanes.
- Break up with your significant other who is sitting right next to you and did not see it coming at all.
- Take someone else’s rollerboard bag out of the overhead compartment, put your’s there, and just leave their rollerboard in the aisle.
- Put your bag under someone else’s seatback saying nothing more than, “Excuse me.”
- Cut your finger nails at your seat (nail clippers apparently got by TSA).
- Cut your toe nails at your seat (nail clippers apparently got by TSA for a second person).
- Put food directly on the tray table and then eat it (OMG those tables are filthy – see #7).
- Blow your nose then put the used tissue on the tray table.
- Pop a zit while at your seat.
- Look at hardcore porn while in your seat (or really any porn for that matter).
- Eat really smelly food on the plane like fried egg sandwiches, tuna sandwiches, or what smelled like a sardine sandwich.
- Fart repeatedly in your seat.
Regardless of how the airlines treat us, we will all have a better flying experience if we as humans stay civilized. What unacceptable things have you seen on airplanes?
I’ve seen #3, 7, 10, 11 myself. Don’t forget the people behind you barging through the cabin to exit before you. Oh and seminary students cursing upon a hard landing. Remember that one?

Great call out – how about: #12. Foul mouthed seminarians barging through the cabin to exit before you.
By the way, someone I know challenged me on #11 saying if you gotta do it you should. So my first disagree on this list.

I can’t believe people do number 1 and 2. Farting repeatedly is something that is funny but not sure it can be too controlled, haha

Yes the farting was the most heavily debated one on the list. But I will say that some people really should think about the bean burrito if they have a flight later that day.
