If she was sleeping on the floor, what was causing the knocking sound. Was hoping for a good story here.
If the pax was not a FIRST pax, it would have been perfectly correct to inform the crew of this. Pax on the floor is also a health and safety issue. I know many a pax (particularly on their way to/from Oz) who would like to lie on the floor in Y in between the seats who have been told they cannot do this for safety reasons.
I was on VS at the weekend to LAX and it definitely appeared to be more of a party plane than normal! Must be something to do with the time of year. Thankfully, everyone was partying at the bar so the nose section was very quiet as a result The bar resembled more of a pub than a gentle bar with the crowds mingling with crew. By the time the spoil sport captain turned on the seat belt sign for turbulence, all the pax were so pissed, everyone just slept when they returned to their seats.
