]]> If you’ve ever worked in the service industry, there’s a good chance you’re well aware of just how much a polite, appreciative customer can improve an entire shift, while a rude comment by a demanding guest can make you want to quit entirely. True, there’s something to be said for the adage “the customer is always right,” but approaching these exchanges from the position of said customer, why not do what we can to make things easier for those taking care of us?  While flying, in particular, there are a few simple ways to respect the cabin crew to help ensure a seamless trip for everyone on board.

Keep it Down

Wherever you choose to sit, be mindful of those around you and respect your fellow passengers by keeping your noise level to a minimum. Hold conversations with travel companions at a reasonable volume, and wear headphones when consuming media with audio while on board. This goes for children, as well. We all understand that little ones cry sometimes, but very few people over the age of 6 want to listen to Baby Shark on repeat—especially at 30,000 feet. 

Be Scent-sible 

Carrying heavy bags and running through the airport can quickly leave us smelling less than our best, so do what you can to take care of any unpalatable odors before sharing a cabin with 300 other passengers. Shower and apply deodorant ahead of leaving for the airport, and reapply or use wet wipes to freshen up before you board. With that, avoid using too much perfume, as well, as strong scents may trigger respiratory issues in passengers with allergies. 

Smooth Boarding

Do your part to ensure an efficient boarding experience for all by heading straight for your assigned seat. Don’t dawdle in the aisle, quickly stowing any carry-on bags without hogging space in the overhead bins. When it’s time to disembark, prevent congestion and minimize stress for the crew and other passengers by patiently waiting your turn.
