Moment airline passenger with ‘zero patience’ charges down the aisle to disembark the plane before his fellow fliers have even unbuckled… sparking huge debate about airplane etiquette
An Instagram user has sparked a furious debate over airline etiquette after quickly disembarking from a plane from the back row.
In the viral video titled: ‘POV: You have 0 patience when getting off’, a passenger sitting in the back of the plane rushes to get off.
As soon as the “seat belt” sign sounds, the passenger grabs his backpack and sets off down the aisle, quickly walking past the passengers as they retrieve their luggage from the overhead bins.
While the majority of the passengers have just unfastened their seat belts and are patiently waiting to disembark, the man mutters to himself – seemingly happy that he managed to disembark so quickly.
An Instagram user has gone viral after quickly disembarking from a plane, sparking a heated debate in the comments section
The man was sitting in the back row and quickly stood up as soon as the seat belt sign went off. He found his way to the front of the plane within seconds
Within seconds, the speedy passenger finds his way to the front of the plane, with only a few people ahead of him.
Posting the video to his 4,000 followers, the social media user wrote in the captions: “I’m literally the top 5 plane unboarders.”
The now-viral video has been viewed nearly 10 million times and generated thousands of comments.
One comment, which read: “You are the problem,” has been liked more than 223,000 times.
Hundreds of other disgruntled passengers agreed. One person wrote: ‘Unless you’re about to miss your connecting flight, this isn’t necessary.’
Another person wrote: ‘Go back to your seat.’
Meanwhile, some were planning revenge fantasies in the comments. One person wrote: ‘When I’m sitting on the aisle I stand up to stop you and tell you to wait your turn.’
However, some users jumped to the passenger’s defense, with one user writing: ‘Why is everyone so angry that they can get off a plane? I saw in the video that no one had a problem.’
Another agreed: “The same people who take 78 business days to pack their things and get off and on the plane are the ones complaining about this guy.”
One particularly passionate follower asked Instagram users to consider three things: “1. He sits in the back of the plane.
‘2. He already had his things ready and got up as soon as they landed.
‘3. Everyone on the plane has two options: get to work faster and be more organized, or let those who are ready and have minimal luggage leave.”
The video comes after a summer of travel etiquette, which saw a heated debate near the start of the season after a CEO turned an entitled mother away from her pre-booked seat.
The businesswoman of jewelry brand CONQUERing, Tammy Nelson, posted her experience on TikTok and received numerous comments praising her for not giving up her seat.
But while most people supported her for refusing the mother’s request, a smaller minority claimed she could have been more empathetic and understanding.
