While on a plane, avoid requesting seat changes from others, speaking too loudly, or causing noise with your devices... These behaviors are considered rude and can leave other passengers with a negative impression of you.
Asking fellow passengers to switch seats with you on a plane

This is considered one of the most impolite actions that flight attendants strongly advise against when traveling by plane. Most passengers prefer to settle into their seats and feel content with their chosen or assigned seat. As a result, when another passenger requests a seat change, it can lead to discomfort, with some even displaying their displeasure immediately.
Additionally, a survey found that 31% of passengers surveyed said they were 'very annoyed' and refused when another passenger asked to swap seats, while the remaining passengers might agree but were not happy about it.
Reclining the seat
Reclining your seat (unless instructed by the flight attendants to return it to an upright position) is a right that every passenger has on a plane. However, most passengers report feeling uncomfortable when the person in front of them reclines their seat, as this reduces the space for those sitting behind, creating a sense of confinement, especially on long flights.
Creating noise during the flight

Reports show that on many flights, passengers casually use entertainment devices without headphones. This disrupts others who may need quiet time to work or rest. Therefore, remember to use headphones when on a plane and avoid playing any media at maximum volume, as it can be bothersome to fellow passengers.
Using both armrests
The issue of "who should use both armrests" often sparks debate. According to flight attendants and seasoned travelers, the person sitting in the middle seat should be the one granted both armrests. This is because the middle seat passenger generally has less space, lacking the window view of the person sitting by the window or the extra legroom that the aisle seat offers.
Talking to the person sitting next to you

Engaging in small talk with the person next to you to get to know each other or for social pleasantries is perfectly normal, as long as the conversation is at a reasonable volume and doesn’t disturb others. However, it’s important to note that many people don’t enjoy chatting with strangers, or they may prefer privacy or rest instead of conversation. In such cases, starting a chat can come across as inconsiderate.
