Top 12 Tips on how to behave on an Airplane

Put your phone on silent mode

Sometimes, the only way to survive a long flight is to sleep. Which is not always easy with the engines humming, kids gently (or not quite gently) kicking your seat or a nearby couple incessantly chatting. And once you’ve finally managed to doze off, someone’s phone starts ringing (don’t you love hardcore ringtones!).I’m sure you don’t want to be that hated passenger, so keep your phone on silent mode (especially on red-eye flights). The Japanese call it ‘manner mode’ since it’s simply good manners to be considerate and respect the peace and quiet of everyone else on board.
