The seats are assigned. People have been standing in line for 15 minutes now. Why on earth would anyone want to stand there, when they could just sit and wait until the line clears?

I understand wanting to get off a plane ASAP, but boarding? You just end up sitting on the plane, waiting for everyone else to get on.

That for me is a stretching thing. I don't care if I'm back of the plane, I'm standing up as soon as we're allowed.

Every time, a good 75% of people stand up before it's allowed and it annoys me every time.

[-] Skua@kbin.social 1 points 8 months ago

You're allowed to get up during the flight though

[-] themadcodger@kbin.earth 6 points 8 months ago

Oh, well in that case I'll just stand during the flight, and remain seated when we land so other people who care too much about what strangers are doing feel more comfortable.

Mate I'm not telling you off for wanting to stretch, just puzzled about why you don't do it earlier on when you start feeling cramped

[-] feebl@feddit.nl 2 points 8 months ago

Because him standing early so he thinks he can get off the plane earlier good, standig during flight bad because logic

I'm on a Boeing plane. I'll stay buckled and seated, thanks.
