A flight attendant with many years of experience shared her observations of passengers and their "worst" actions that make the crew angry. One of these annoying habits is the desire of tourists to take off their shoes and forget about them for the entire flight.

Flight attendants are most indignant when passengers walk around the cabin barefoot. This is not only unhygienic, but also unpleasant for others, writes Express.

"Although aircraft cabins are cleaned before each flight, there is rarely enough time to disinfect and deeply clean the floors and bathrooms. We never recommend traveling barefoot or in socks," the flight attendant said.

However, what should you do if your shoes are too tight, your feet are swollen, and the cabin is hot?

Experts recommend taking slippers with you when traveling. This will not only ensure comfort during the flight, but also help keep your feet clean.

For example, a pair of hotel slippers is light enough to take in your backpack, but even a thin fabric provides reliable protection against germs on the plane.

For added comfort, make sure your feet are clean and smell good. For example, wipe them with napkins in the restroom while changing shoes.
