So after one memorable night of torture when I was "upgraded" from one of those "no seat in front" exit rows to 1C - I am now happily swapping with unsuspecting poor souls giving them a chance to experience a life "up front".....

So if airlines don't want customers' feet up in the air in their so called "first class" - they should make it a real first class.

Literally all they have to do is carve out a hole in the bulkhead. It's not that hard. I don't understand why this isn't more commonplace.

This guy is a real class act

This clown has both of his feet up, and insisted on reclining into the guy behind him's knees repeatedly this afternoon. Complete with the draped cardigan, he's too rich to be respectful of others, but not rich enough to fly private with a lie flat bed. Maybe we should call Delta and ask them to have more lie-flat beds from the West Coast to ATL?

Also doesn't have his seatbelt buckled while seated -- all that's needed is some sudden heavy turbulence, problem solved

And not even with the unbuckled belt tucked away on his seat. Just dangling in the aisle because clearly nobody else exists on this plane.

Posted it to FT hopes the PAX would recognize their knuckles and apologize.

me, I would have struck the gorilla’s knuckles with my iPad after I’d painted his fingernails with white- out. What would you have done?
im not assuming that the OP did nothing.

How long did the guy maintain his hands like that? Doesn't seem like the kind of position that could go on more than a couple of minutes. (Unless he's the yogi standing on his head in the earlier picture.)

This is not to shame what was overall a good flight crew, but I thought it was pretty gross to put the tray of clean classes for beverage service on this really dirty floor. Obviously the two FAs are working in tight quarters while one prepped the meals and the other poured drinks, but there's got to be a better solution than this. Hindsight 20/20, I probably should have said something. I already had my drink before the tray was placed on the floor, but I'm sure the other F pax behind me who couldn't see this wouldn't have appreciated this.

I don't understand. There's still a tray between the glasses and the actual floor, right? Sure, it's psychologically weird, but the glasses should still be fine?

But Delta specifically tells their FAs not to do this for sanitary reasons as well as to not crush ice by banging the bag on the floor.....so......

Ice bags get, it can easily tear open and the ice normally stays in the bag when opened, plus the bag gets handled when getting ice.

The glasses though there's no touching the bottom of the tray and the bottom isn't handled when getting a glass.
