Very despondent to watch such unruly scenes being repeated on India bound/ domestic Indian airlines. Similar but different incidents of inconsiderate and appalling behavior on Air India business class and a Thai airline flight to Kolkata. There seems to be a jerk on most flights. https://t.co/wmKsY0rXhH

How can anyone be rude to Air hostesses? It’s beyond me they’re so sweet especially in India where people lack manners and are very rude in the way they communicate. https://t.co/a4EVXVwb73

Misbehaviour of air passengers is a common thing. They think they own the flight and can talk any nonsense to staff in the name of customer service. Good that the misbehaving passenger is arrested.

And look at the rising standard. From peeing to abusing to thrashing on board. https://t.co/Wljq5UMmjT

When it comes to commoners, the #airlines act quickly and professionally. But when it comes to politicians or high income folks, they tend to forget the rules. https://t.co/kDERESNut3

I am frequent domestic flyer and I agree both crew members & flyers are getting rude now a days.

These cases should be studied properly @DGCAIndia lets have genuine feedbacks else it is not going to stop.
