What you should never do at an airport: Flight Attendant Tips

Joke about bombs and terrorist attacks

Well if not ridiculously assume that you have with a bomb? Anyone who looks at you will understand at once that you would never engage in acts of terrorism. So why not make a joke about it? Not worth it.

Hester said the recent case in the Los Angeles airport. One of the passengers in the affirmative answer to the standard question of the employee, if he has with aerosols, sharp objects or explosives. Then he turned to his companion and asked him if he put the explosives. Joker was arrested and charged with offenses under the article "false report of an impending explosion."

Although later with the man and removed the charges, do not take his example and make jokes about bombs at the airport. According to Hester, employees are required to report any such statement, even if it is clear that this is a joke.

Stand mute

Of course, all sorts of formalities on board the aircraft terribly annoying. It is unlikely that the situation folding table something will change in the event of an accident. But guides are required to ensure that during take-off and landing them folded. However, for some reason, not all are willing to comply with this rule.

Hester collided with a passenger, who was in charge in complete silence at the request of employees add up table before takeoff. He ignored all questions of senior flight attendant. I had to return the aircraft to the airport terminal. The guards brought the obstinate passenger, and only then he spoke.

Yes, sometimes you do not want to talk. But still not the flight attendants check the patience to the test.

Try to smuggle prohibited items on board

Long queues and search seem a waste of time when they have to endure for you personally. But they are completely justified, because a huge number of passengers trying to take through the checkpoint prohibited items.

The official said the US Administration Pockett Jason (Jason Pockett) transport safety, the strangest thing in his work - to see people try all sorts of ways to do it. More often than not without malice. For example, the battery is glued to the tape of food containers. Or hide objects in the dirty laundry to the staff was unpleasant checked bag. If you do not believe that is the case, look at the Instagram Transportation Security Administration.

Drunk (and admit that you're drunk)

Some alcohol helps to transfer the flight without a nervous breakdown. But if you can not drink, stay home. While on board are selling alcoholic drinks, you will not be allowed to board if you clearly drunk.

And if you say that you are "a lord", an employee screening service, you may well be fined or even arrested. Do not drink a lot, or at least wait until you are on board.
