Indian travelers do not take misbehaviour by co-passengers on flights and would complain or confront with the passenger, shows a Flight Etiquette Survey 2017 by Expedia, an online travel solutions provider. <\/p>\n
\u201cExpedia data shows that 69% said they would alert the flight attendant and ask them to handle an unruly passenger, while 30% said they would confront a misbehaving passenger directly. Overall 24% said they would resort to social shaming of the passenger or tweet about it,\u201d says the data. <\/p>\n
The survey also highlights that Indians find rear-seat kickers (52%), boozers (50%) and loud passengers (49%) most annoying in a flight, while they are most tolerant to flirting singles (33%) and amorous couples (30%). <\/p>\n
\u201cA majority (65%) would pay extra to be seated in a \u2018quiet section\u2019 if the airline offered one. Dreading sitting next to someone who talks too much on a flight is a justified fear, as many will engage in conversation,\u201d says the survey. <\/p>\n
\u201cThe survey highlights that 76% feel that for most part, fellow passengers are considerate of other passengers and 59% have offered their seat to a fellow passenger in need. About 61% Indians use flights as an opportunity to interact with and know new people. Ironically, 68% of the flyers also dread sitting next to a talkative person,\u201d Manmeet Ahluwalia, Marketing Head at Expedia in India was quoted in the release.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
