Maybe Seth Rogen should start recording his 'transit conduct' messages for playing in the MLL.

Or maybe the people who feel offended are mostly in J?

Also I did enjoy a few “therapeutic” moments by giving the husband the glare of death. His eyes looked like they understood, but his brain and body clearly were clearly not recipients of any clues.

This couple were not business travellers by any remote means or indicators. Everyone in the cabin heard every word both of them spoke and there were enough details to know that while they paid for J, they would be perfect candidates to receive one of those fantasy brochures “How to Behave in Business Class” and to be clear to anyone else, these 2 were not drunk before they boarded. They were just obnoxious.

Let’s be honest, how to behave on a plane might be a better subject. It’s not like Y pax are much better behaved. Though I’ve never seen someone shaving in Y.
Additional booklets in how to board (and unboard ) a plane, behave in an airport lounge, use a public or aircraft washroom, consume goods from a buffet etc... would also be welcome.
Articles for ACs onboard magazine?

YOW - YYZ yesterday, J cabin: prior to pullback, my seatmate first uses a heavily perfumed hand lotion. I'm not overly sensitive, but ugh. Gets worse: out comes the nail polish. And it is pungent. We pull back, she keeps at it, finally puts it away when we're about to take off. Five minutes later, out it comes again. I'm leaning away from her to get away from the smell.
Big kudos to the flight attendant who told her she can't do that on a plane.

BTW on the same vein, am I the only one offended by having to walk through this foul-smelling supermarket (perfume section) at nearly every airport?
Likewise I am now reluctant using Uber since that time I ended up with a heavily scented driver. Sticking to cabs and airport limos for now.

What will it take for airlines to introduce a no scent policy?

Definitely in the "hold your nose and run" camp over here.

Isn't it reasonable to expect people not to inflict unpleasant odors on others? That the perfumed person likes his/her scent does by no means imply that I should like it. Basically not so different than farting, except that sometimes that may be a bit harder to control.

BTW I don't think my wife has been using perfume for maybe 15 or 20 years by now, and definitely not on a plane. Anyway, my perception is that we are moving quickly in a direction whereby using perfume characterizes peasant bimbos. Male or female . But eh, that's the Trump world I guess. Maybe they should fly WS.
