What not to say on a plane
Hamdi Yazici, a Turkish 41 year old, has been sentenced to 4 months in prison after he walked to the front of a plane with a bag while chanting 'Allah'.
The Turkish plane was flying from Istanbul to Stansted Airport when the man, who was drunk, got up and walked to the front of the plane chanting 'Allah'. In court, the judge was told how it took 6 members of flight staff to restrain the man and then hold him down until the plane could land and the police arrived.
Laura Harris, the judge in court said: “I am quite sure it was extremely distressing and alarming for those passengers.
“They didn’t know what you were planning to do when you started to walk down to the front. For all they knew you could have been a very dangerous man.”
The man admitted that he was drunk on the plane and he has now been sentenced to 4 months in prison.
So, this got me thinking, what are the top 10 things you shouldn't say on a plane? After some Googling and some chuckling, here is my top 10 list of things you shouldn’t say on a plane:
- It’s not like I have a bomb.
- Allah.
- Hi Jack! (ensure you say ‘Hello Jack’ if you’re travelling with jack)
- Is it time yet? (repeatedly)
- That’s not my bag beeping, it’s me
- You may not want to drop my bag
- Will Osama be proud of me?
- Explode
- 3…2…1…boom
- Go..GO..Go!! (while yelling)
So, that’s my top ten list of things not to say on a plane, that Turkish guy should have done some Googling to know he shouldn’t have said that. Just ensure you don't uetter any of those words next time you fly, it could land you in some trouble.
