14 Things You Should NEVER Do When Flying. Here’s Why
A phone dying at the gate with a digital boarding pass is one of the most avoidable ways to miss a flight, and the fix takes seconds the night before: screenshot the pass and ask the counter for a printed copy. The tray table turns out to be one of the dirtiest surfaces in the cabin, dirtier than the lavatory flush button according to surface tests, so a quick wipe before putting any food near it matters more than most people realize. The most memorable warning is about rings and hearing aids wrapped in napkins: to crew moving fast through the cabin with a trash bag, a crumpled napkin on a tray table looks exactly like rubbish, every time. The video also covers keeping a power bank out from under blankets while charging, turning off data roaming before landing to avoid surprise phone bills, and what to do in the first minutes if you realize you left something on the plane.
