Etiquettes Of Flying: Aviation Ministry reminds people that flight's reclining seat is not a sleeper berth with interesting tweet

| @indiablooms | Feb 22, 2020, at 04:12 pm

New Delhi/IBNS: The Indian Ministry of Civil Aviation posted several interesting tweets recently where they advised people on how they can properly use reclining seats so that it does not create a trouble for fellow passengers.

The interesting post read: "A little bit of basic good manners and respect are always worth a thumbs up. Your seat is not a sleeper berth. Don't be inconsiderate of other people's space. #BeAResponsibleTraveller #EtiquettesOfFlying."

In the illustration, which is part of the tweet, a man could be seen sleeping on the reclined seat making it difficult for the person sitting behind him to rest. 

The message in the illustration read: " With the limited space you have, if you must recline, do it carefully. Always think about the people around you because no one wants your head in their laps."

Urging people to be considerate of the cabin storage space, the ministry in another tweet said: "A little bit of basic good manners and respect are always worth a thumbs up. Don't be a binhog, be a responsible traveller and travel smart. #BeAResponsibleTraveller #EtiquettesOfFlying."
