This country is to fine passengers who stand up before the seatbelt sign is switched off on planes
I would like to share with you a series of photos that I took above or among clouds :)
However, as you could guess, that isn't the main topic of the post.
One news caught my attention a few days ago and I actually see that as something positive.
I can count myself at least a dozen times when I was occupying isle seat and receiving an elbow or a luggage scratch or hit in the face or somewhere else in my upper part of the body.
I always ask myself? Why the hurry? Always, I mean, literally always, it takes at least a quarter of an hour after a plane touches down up to the moment when the doors are open and the crew gives the green exit light.
Moreover, I totally agree with the article, noticing that it is not just annoying, this behavior is quite dangerous as many things could happen prior planes reach their designated gate and shut down their engines.
Well, I know, I've been chasing connecting flights, etc. but still, there are more important things.
Some may say, the $70 (€62) fine isn't substantially big so perhaps it's just a fee for those who are in a big hurry but then, there is the possibility of delays to them so the fee is fined and paid! :)
So my opinion on this is... Türkiye, well done! :) We needed some regulations in that regards...
What's your opinion?
