#25: An Extra Element of Danger
Let’s face it, some passengers can be downright dreadful. It’s hard to overlook the tumultuous period when federal regulations necessitated mask-wearing on flights. During this time, certain individuals reacted as though it heralded the apocalypse, leading to altercations and, in some cases, passengers being forcibly removed from flights. The memory of such incidents serves as a stark reminder of the challenges faced by airline staff in maintaining order and ensuring the safety and comfort of all passengers.
Well, it can get even worse than that: you could be sharing your flight with a serial killer! I say that jokingly, but if you have to be in close quarters with a serial killer, this is probably the best way to do it—they’re heavily guarded, and if they slipped away, it’s not like they could get far, since they’re 30,000 feet in the air. On second thought, I’m not sure that’s worse than people refusing to wear masks.
