So what if they are in the hospitality business? Flight attendants are average human beings like us and are not immune to insensitivity and annoying requests. Flight attendants take time out to share some of the most annoying things passengers do that spoils their moods. On the other hand, you as a passenger, can pardon yourself for some of these as some situations are really under no one's control 1. Ordering Diet Coke This is one of the things you can forgive yourself for. Because it's actually the soda's fault. Diet Coke takes longer to fizz out when compared to other sodas. Given the flight's altitude, it can take quite a few seconds to settle down. When the flight attendants have hundred other passengers to serve and host of different things to worry about, this can be a tad bit annoying for them. 2. Requesting things even before settling down Flight attendants always wonder why some passengers wouldn't take care of minutiae before boarding. Boarding can be a hassle with some many rules and regulations. So getting on board and asking for snacks or water to gulp that pill down the first thing, can become stressful for those serving you. 3. Assuming flight attendants know it all A lot of people keep bugging flight attendants for information about the weather, route, turbulence, and other flight information that only the captain knows. Flight attendants aren't told everything and they want people to acknowledge that. But they do the best they can to make the passengers feel safe. 4. Yelling at them for something not under their control This is actually something a lot of people working in the retail or as employees of stores would agree with. Customers can sometimes vent their anger for the company or the store on you. And that's absolutely annoying because you cannot yell back and the fault isn't even yours. The same goes for flight attendants. Flights getting delayed or cancelled affects everybody but yelling at people who have no role to play in it won't change matters. 5. Using their only space on the plane Passengers might do this unknowingly, but when they wander off to the alleys where flight attendants have their seats, it takes away from them their only place of respite. 6. Snapping your fingers This is probably rude anywhere, not just on flights. Basic rules of decency go a long way. 7. Changing seats without permission By changing seats to ones that are more expensive and exclusive, passengers can give off air that they are entitled to do so, when they really are not. 8. Pestering over getting the second meal choice Passengers can get really angry for not receiving their first meal choice. And this is then vented on the flight attendants. 9. Disregarding the seat belt sign As adults, passengers can sometimes be really surprising for having to use the restroom as a matter of urgency exactly when the seat belt sign is on. That sign is their to ensure the passenger's safety. 10. Touching Touching of any kind is inappropriate in any setting. Prodding flight attendants to get something you want will only enlist you as a bugging passenger in their eyes. 11. Untimely ringing the call bells Flight attendants have resented being called for weightless reasons right when they have to get seated for takeoff. 12. Using restrooms before takeoff and while landing Legally, a plane cannot take off if a person is in the lavatory. There are protocols for this because take off and landing are precarious times in a plane's journey. 13. Ignoring safety presentation Yes, as passengers we have been on numerous flights and seen hundreds of safety presentations. In fact, we can speak along with the attendants making the presentation. But making annoyed faces and deliberately acting fed up only hurts the person doing his or her job. 14. Poor timing Meal timings are planned on an airplane. So if you finish the food before everyone else, it's a courtesy to wait for the attendant to come and ask for the trash. Handing it over while they are still serving food to others is considered a bad habit by those in the profession. 15. No greetings Greetings go a long way. It makes those serving you feel delighted to help you. And if nothing else, a smile and a "thank you" would make someone's day. 16. Not keeping feet in the right place Putting feet up on the walls or letting them run free on other passengers' seats creates a bad situation for everyone. 17. Stuffing the overhead bins The rule is big suitcases go in the overhead bins and the small bags go under the seat. That way, everyone has enough space to put all their luggage. Not following this annoys the flight attendants as they have to keep separating the bags and suitcases to create more space. Credits: businessinsider.in
