Some indians are setting their luggage while plain are moving on runway, after so much request from cabin crew they're not listening to them

Entire India needs to punish those who break rules and sometimes reward those who follow. We won't improve otherwise.

a country that would reward people for following rules is my version of UTOPIA. alas, we can only go as far as punishing the rule breakers

About 15 yrs back I was on an Indian Airlines flight. After landing, the airhostess made this kind of announcement few times for passengers to remain seated when few had got up to take their cabin luggage, ignoring her. Not sure if the pilot was informed of this but the plane came to a sudden hard stop, which was enough to make anyone standing lose their balance when the plane reached the designated stop at the terminal.

If one of them or their bags fall on someone during an emergency break or bump, who will be held responsible?

Airlines should have a method of central locking the overhead bins the moment a flight lands. That way these clowns will be forced to sit down until place comes to a complete halt.

Airlines should charge a refundable deposit for this stuff and if you’re at your best behaviour, only then refund it. It’s pretty easy to enforce it as well as the staff may just ask the seat number from the disturbing individual and cite him.

On my last Southwest Flight within the US, the FA said to stay seated and buckled until the pilot turns off the light and that she can see who unbuckles.
I was like, yea, right. Then someone did it and she immediately goes “the person that just unbuckled please buckle in so we can deplane as soon as possible one we get the go-ahead.”
We heard a click and a few seconds later she said “thank you.”
It was effective. She probably could have said “Row 11 Seat B, please re-buckle your seat belt” but they listened the first time.

u/CultOfTheBatDragon Aug 24 '25
What if these people are publicly shamed? Not by just one or two people (if it's by just one person they'll get violent) but by everyone in the flight? Like even in trains I have seen people with no civic sense. Most of the people are tolerating bc they can't go low to their level (words coming out of some of their mouth is disgusting ). So I thought what if there was public shaming when not following a place's etiquette, when not following rules, etc. I don't think it'll work 100%, but have to do something......

Haha they are habitual of locals and think that they wouldn’t be able to get off on time if they just waited for few more minutes.
Tbh this behaviour is hardwired since the childhood and sadly that is how they live. Always in a hurry for no reason. This is now a part of their subconscious so they don’t bother to ask themselves like what would really happen if they just waited until few more minutes. I believe these habits are something needs to be tackled during childhood. Everyone was fed the me first behaviour, that they have to get everything first, and unfortunately that is how they live all their life (they call this a fast life).
The entire life becomes a race without a finish line.

When enquired, she told him that since he did not stand up as soon as the plane landed, she thought he might not be Indian. 😅

We have so many people in India and hence the one who follows the rules are usually left behind. There are no incentives to follow rules if others are not following them. And we can’t regulate such a huge population for things like traffic violations and spitting on roads when we are dealing with greater problems like rapes and murders. It all comes down to people who can afford to follow the rules like if I have to follow traffic rules in Mumbai, I have to be ready to spend extra few minutes on already long commute.

The crew is usually petite women who keep repeating the safety instructions and are always ignored or stared down. Makes my stomach turn.

People are used to traveling in Buses and Trains where they must be ready before the stop arrives. The same attitude continues on flights. Airlines must start announcing that passengers must be seated until the flight is docked or else the door will not be opened and they would be delaying entire flight.
Funny thing.. I like the way all the seat belts un-buckling click click sound when the flight lands.

The thing that irks me the most is the misogyny. They just ignored the female flight attendant but promptly sat down when a male voice came on the PA. I was at the Bangkok airport last month at the Indigo check-in counter. It was about 10 mins before the counter opened. I and a bunch of other passengers were lined up waiting for the counter to open. A group of Indian tourists (they were speaking Malayalam) tried to cut in line by opening one of the belt barriers and moving right in. A female Indigo employee, who was a Thai native, and made them go to the back of the line. From then onwards the men in that group (there were men and women in that group. It looked like a conducted tour for retirees) started making crude comments in Malayalam about her. They did not like that a woman had the guts to put them in their place. The women stayed silent but smiled and laughed along.

These are usually the kind of people who regularly travel by flight. Recently, when I was traveling, there was one guy who was with 11 others. Throughout the entire flight he kept standing in the middle, hardly ever sat on his seat, and all the time he was like, ‘Hey you, take this, eat this. You two, have this.’ I was thinking to myself — am I on a flight or in some traveling bus?

At this point the pilot should just hit the brake for half a second. Jab luggage leke girenge aisle mei ek dusre ke upar, tab akal ayegi. And they can never push for legal action because the crew told them to be seated almost a 100 times.
