I didn't get photos but there were two little hellions in F with mommy and daddy seated in different rows on my flight to ATL tonight. I thought the age limit for lap children was two? These two girls looked old enough to play little league. They didn't shut up the entire flight and made a nice big mess with their snacks.

I do the same. ^

But it is my coffee table, not a shared communal one. I don't do it with public ones.

EDIT: or I guess 1A is the person with their legs up. The parallax was throwing me off.
Either that or the lady needs a shave.

I just took a nap with my boots on. In my own bed, not even a hotel bed where someone else washes the sheets. I might even have breakfast here this weekend!

Yesterday from MZT to MSP, a Non-Rev upgrade sitting is 3A put her bare feet up between my wife and my seats on our armrests while we were in 2A/2B.

I tried to get the photo but the person flying with her in 3B, made her aware of what I was trying to do..... It's bad enough, but she either works for Delta or was traveling with someone that is. (How do I know it was a non-rev?; They paged all non-rev passengers to come to the gate, and I witnessed the upgrade while waiting for the boarding process to start.)

And, of course, no FA will direct a pax to stop using the plane as their personal living room. Really disappointing.

Thats not good enough for some on this board. Many on this board will claim she couldn't possibly be a non-rev and they you couldnt possibly have the powers to deduce such a thing .

Kudos to you-Ive been spotting poor non-rev behavior (when it occurs) since I was 19.

And thanks to these non-revs, the rest of us get a bad rap.

Shame on them.

Of course, Delta is not the only airline with this issue. I just happen to fly DL more often, so I see it more on their flights.
