Get ready for a lot of wet seat cussions.
That’s wet seat cushions as well.
I frequently fly to Asia from the west coast, and passengers routinely ignore instructions on these flights. We could be descending thru turbulence and people are queueing up for the restrooms, or doing the same when we are taxiing for takeoff. Instructions are given in multiple languages but some people somehow think they are exempt, or that the urge to pee trumps all. I even see people unloading or trying to unload the overheads as soon as we touch down. Just once I’d like to see how many people would go flying if the pilot did a brake tap when all those buckles unsnap as the wheels touch down.
It's guaranteed to get a lot worse than that.
A recent report on airport food (to further complicate things) established that the odds of getting food poisoning or other unhealthy nasties is several times greater than non airport eating establishments.
I can attest to that.
On a trip from Sacramento to Baltimore-Wahington in 2007 I had a stopover of a couple of hours in Chicago. I had a meal at one of the airport restaurants and got food poisoning. Which kicked in right after takeoff. I was told I had to stay in my seat. My reply was, "well, get ready for a real bad 2-hour flight; this seat will be a mess very very soon, and I feel sorry for anyone sitting within 5 feet.
I was allowed to leave my seat and things were --- ummm--- explosive.
I wonder if that would work, if so, let’s all do it, wet our seats, and no I am NOT KIDDING....
