Well, you get it, everybody behaves like adults and follows the rules so reminders shouldn't be necessary.
I'm not saying that I necessarily agree with all the "silly" rules but rules are rules and the often exist for reasons that aren't apparent on the surface. Anyway, good to know that everybody follows the rules like the adults that we all are.
Wouldn't it be nice if all of the customers as well as all of the airline employees followed the rules? It's frustrating on both sides. Now if I just had a megaphone during boarding to remind the gate agents and FAs about the rules they're not following.
Fun to think about.
My biggest frustration about the announcements during the flight was already mentioned by someone else -- I sometimes have absolutely no idea what the pilot is saying. I guess if there's an emergency they'll find some way to make things clear.
