Flight attendant gives 3 eye-opening tips on what to avoid during flying: 'Things I would never do'

There are often many rules associated with traveling, especially while traveling by air. Despite these, there are other etiquettes and practices passengers must follow as a default way of ensuring a safe and comfortable flight. Flight attendant Cher, shared 3 things she would never do on a flight and it is noteworthy for passengers. The flight attendant whose TikTok page is dedicated to tips, ideas and more to make traveling hassle-free mentioned that these 3 tips are worth considering and can aid in improving the quality of the trip. While her tips are crucial, her reasons for supporting the same are remarkable. “Firstly, I would never wear shorts on a plane for many reasons,” she suggested

She mentioned that one of the major reasons was because it’s cold on planes. “Number two, say we have an evacuation and we have to go down the slide, your butt cheeks are going to be sizzled off,” she added. The next tip Cher suggested was booking flights with at least more than a 3-hour connection. “Delays can happen for a million and one reasons and the likelihood that you’d miss your connection is very high,” Cher mentioned. The flight attendant was speaking about how flight delays can delay the entire process of boarding the next flight and having a 3-hour or more open slot always allows the much-needed buffering time. Lastly, Cher suggested not using the toilet paper on the plane.

“Hear me out, I wipe. But if you’ve closely noticed the toilet paper on the airplane, I promise you’re going to see water droplets on it, or what you think are water droplets,” she added. Explaining further, the flight attendant said, “I don’t think we can trust most men to make it to the toilet on a normal day, let alone flying 36,000 feet with turbulence. I tell all my ladies, just use the Kleenex instead.” Several people were grateful for the flight attendant’s advice and shared their plight while traveling by air. @biancahuntwhitten said, “It's so hard to find flights with a 3-hour layover. It’s either 58 minutes, 6 hours or 24 minutes.” @theporterreport said, “The way I gasped at the toilet paper one.”

Regarding the toilet paper tip, many pointed out that one can remove and throw the exposed portion and use the rest while others preferred sticking to Kleenex. @rebeccagonzalez224 said, “I knew it. I noticed the toilet paper on my previous flight, used the facial tissues instead.” @furstlove2006 added to the flight tips saying, “I never wear sandals on a plane, in case I have to run somewhere.” @thegeartheadchick said, “I’m pretty sure the 15 minutes I had to get to my connecting flight to Seattle took the life out of me… Never again.” @batgirldeb said, “These are the best tips I haven’t seen anywhere else, thank you!” @meggs95 also recommended avoiding dresses while traveling by flight saying, “Those airports are huge and my thighs were chub rubbed.” @ann_12340 said, “The toilet paper tips are so smart, My brain never went there and I’m so glad you said this.”
