Unbelievable that there are idiots out there that can't obey the do not smoke rule. And to answer another poster my guess is there are many smokes. Let's just say there is a particular demographic of people sitting in the back of the plane and they are loud, and they love to smoke.

Oh, and the announcement is not programmed because although the wordings are roughly the same, but there are some slight variation (missing definite articles, etc.) and they especially butchered the mandarin part...

It was very annoying because the IFE kept being stopped for the announcements.

Oh, and when we landed they immediate jump up and take there luggage and attempt to walk up to the front of the Y section, until some FAs nicely but surely asked them to go back to their seats and sit down, and one of them actually talked back: "but why are you up?"

Anyway, it surprises me this is not a special occurence (from the replies it seems to happen quite often, which is disturbing.)
