The flight attendant named a common passenger habit that can be traumatic and answered whether it is ethical to take off your shoes

During a long-haul flight, the body can swell and start to hurt due to uncomfortable posture or shoes, so travelers do everything possible to improve blood circulation. For example, they take off their boots or put their feet in the aisle.

While bartenders don't care about the first habit, the second can lead to injuries. Chris Major, who represents European flight attendants and pilots as chairman of the Joint Crew Committee of the European Transport Workers' Federation, told CNN Travel.

During a night flight, when it is dark in the cabin, the outstretched legs of passengers become a real challenge for flight attendants who have to move quickly around the cabin.

"Especially on a night flight, if you put your feet out in the aisle and you're wearing dark socks, we can't see you and we'll trip over you, and that's a little bit unpleasant for us," Major explained.

Ultimately, such tripping can be traumatic for both passengers and crew members.

As for taking off your shoes, this is not a problem for flight attendants. On the contrary, tourists are encouraged to take off their shoes to improve blood circulation, but an unpleasant nuance can be a bad smell.

You can always get rid of it in the toilet or by taking a shower and changing your socks before the flight.
