Is this a troll?

Perhaps the stinky sock is even worse than the barefoot.

Oh well. Expect your photo here soon.

If he's a troll then I'm one too because I agree. As long as you're wearing shoes or socks and your feet aren't above the pocket where the magazine/safety card etc. go, I don't see the problem.

You understand you're in a public place? A place of business. Not a family room or lounge.

So is this the correct thread for breast feeding ( on a plane or in a lounge) or should I start a new one ?

Do you leave your shoes on when in J or F in a flatbed seat? I certainly don't, though I would never expose my bare feet. I think socks once airborne are perfectly acceptable assuming they aren't up I someone's face or anything...

Itnl J amenity kits provide socks. Socks that presumably haven't been attached to feet that carry 600 different forms of bacteria for hours prior to arrival at the aircraft. Socks worn outside the aircraft for hours tend to capture and retain moisture from the foot, many times creating objectionable foot odor.

Earwax

No picture unfortunately, but today the person sitting next to me picked the earwax out of her earbud headphones and wiped it on the side of the seat between us.

I launder my socks between every use and typically end up with them still smelling like my fabric softener post use (arguably a better smell than what's on the socks provided in the amenity kits on many airlines).

In all likeliness, if an individual's socks are in such shape that they carry a strong odor, their shoes will also smell equally unsavory, at least, such are my observations of others. I've never had a problem with foot odor from someone removing their shoes and keeping their socked feet at normal foot level on a typical flight. Now if a person has their feet up in or near my face, that's another story.

Anyone with $6k can fly up front (and LOTS of people do). If they have the $$ they certainly do deserve to fly up front and Delta will never tell them otherwise. CLASS, or the lack there of, is another thing altogether and it has absolutely nothing to do with $$.
