The seats are assigned. People have been standing in line for 15 minutes now. Why on earth would anyone want to stand there, when they could just sit and wait until the line clears?

I understand wanting to get off a plane ASAP, but boarding? You just end up sitting on the plane, waiting for everyone else to get on.

    Same when the plane lands. You must be the first to unclip and stand. He who stands longest wins.

      That for me is a stretching thing. I don’t care if I’m back of the plane, I’m standing up as soon as we’re allowed.

          Oh, well in that case I’ll just stand during the flight, and remain seated when we land so other people who care too much about what strangers are doing feel more comfortable.

            Mate I’m not telling you off for wanting to stretch, just puzzled about why you don’t do it earlier on when you start feeling cramped

      Naaah, leaving the plane should be in order of the seats. Not “I stood up first”. Now you have to play the game of:

      1. Push your way into the standing line
      2. Let one standing person through, but then the whole line just keeps going cos they’re in a rush to stand in another line at the airport

      Standing is superior to sitting unless you are disabled or unhealthy
