MUMBAI: One of the perks of being a pilot or a flight attendant would be getting a chance to be around VVIPs and celebrities when they’re on board your flight. But a number of celebrities don’t like to be bothered, especially on flights, because there is nowhere to retreat to. So if a cabin crew or a pilot comes around requesting a selfie or worse, wanting to discuss the latest going-ons in their field of expertise, the VVIP might get cross and complain.
That is what appears to have happened on a recent Air India flight as the airline has banned its pilots and flight attendants from intruding into the personal zone of these passengers. What is more, any crew member who doesn’t follow these new orders and gets a selfie, will face disciplinary action after they land.
