Why you should never drink tea and coffee on a plane - flight attendant reveals the dos and don'ts

A FLIGHT attendant who recently quit her job has revealed the seven things you should never do while on board a plane.

Reddit user adrianne456, whose credentials have been verified by the site, decided to answer the common questions about flying that everyone wants to know about reported The Sun.

She started off her post by writing, “I’ve been a flight attendant for a little under two years for a regional airline that serves three of the US’ major airlines”

“I worked on 80-seater aircraft with one other flight attendant and two pilots. It’s been a great experience, but today — I quit.”
And here are some of the things that adrianne456 said you should never do while on board as compiled by the Indy100.

 

1. Don’t take a seat in first class (unless you have a ticket)

“You will get embarrassed.”

2. Don’t drink the tea or coffee

“I personally would not drink the potable water from the aircraft. So the tea, coffee … I would avoid. The water isn’t so bad but how often do you really think those tanks are cleaned?”

3. Don’t try to join the Mile High Club, they know what you’re trying to do no matter how subtle you think you are

“We can pretty much see what everyone is doing on the plane for the most part. I would see two people going in the bathroom easily.”

4. Don’t do a poo

“Don’t take a s**t on the plane, please. Sometimes I get it, you just have to go but damn, close the door behind you …

”5. In fact, don’t use the bathroom while boarding either

“You are really getting in the flight attendant’s way.”

Ifyou are scared of turbulence you shouldn’t sit at the back of the plane. Picture: Supplied.

6. Don’t eat directly off the table trays

“The overnight crew cleans the aircraft. But I would say [they clean it], very rarely.”

7. Don’t sit in the back if you’re scared of turbulence

“Try to get a seat assignment near the front of the aircraft. Turbulence is always going to be worst in the back of the aircraft.”
