Passenger keeps shoving phone in window flyer’s face to get photo outside of plane: ‘It’s just plain rude’
It’s just plane rude.
A dramatic debate is heating up in the skies as travelers are fed up with aisle or middle-seat passengers stretching across their row to take pictures out of an airplane window.
Fanny Gagnon O’Donnell, situated in a window seat, stealthily captured a recent discourteous act on camera, showing how invasive it was to have a flailing arm invade her cramped personal space — repeatedly — for an iPhone picture.
“Thank god it was only a 3h [hour] flight,” she captioned a TikTok of her trip, which traveled from Spain to Germany, reported the Daily Mail.
“There is no way there is something to film that many times,” one person commented.
“When someone does this to a literal stranger in their personal space, it’s just plain rude,” one commenter opined. “People need to learn courtesy and boundaries, and ask before invading someone’s space.”
Others commented on their own similar horror stories as well.
“I had the same [passenger] next to me last time — I just closed the window,” one person wrote.
“Me flying to iceland. Paid extra for the window seat. Girl next to me told me off to not block her view of the window like excuse me???” added another.
The Post has reached out to O’Donnell for comment.
The cruising-altitude conundrum also evoked a similar incident from the end of 2023.
A TikTokker dramatically asked, “Do people not know personal space?” — as a man in her row repeatedly reached toward the window.
“I would’ve closed the shade and stared into his soul. We would’ve corrected that behavior before descent,” one commenter said.
Others, however, said in lieu of just making a passive-aggressive video, a simple “stop it” would have brought everyone back down to Earth.
“I don’t understand how someone could not speak up in a situation like this,” one wrote.
“It’s very important to be able to advocate for ourselves when someone is making us uncomfortable,” added another.
