Woman Flies Emirates For The Very First Time. Then Her Seatmate Does Something Most Passengers Wouldn’t Put Up With For 15 Hours: ‘I’m Cryinggg Why Did You Allow This To Happen?’
passengers sleeping in flight (l) woman shares emirates flight experience (c) Emirates aircraft (r) When you book a long-haul flight, you’re probably hoping for a few hours of solid sleep, maybe a decent meal, and as much personal space as possible (especially when you can afford to pay for it). But one woman’s first Emirates experience took an unexpected and uncomfortable turn. Commenters are split. Some are focusing on her flight companion’s audacity. Others are confused why she didn’t take more action. Unexpected In-Flight ‘Cuddling’ In a wildly viral video with more than 15 million views, content creator Hayley (@slotbottom) captured what might be the most awkward airplane seating situation ever documented. The clip shows her Emirates experience taking an unexpected turn when her seatmate—an older woman wrapped in a blanket—decided she was going to get comfortable by any means necessary. The footage starts innocuously enough. The cabin lights are dimmed for sleeping. And passengers are settling in for what appears to be a lengthy flight. But then things get weird. The woman to Hayley’s right, covered in her blanket, seems to lock eyes with her before making her move. “TBT to when this old lady spooned me for an entire 15 hour flight,” Hayley wrote in the text overlay. The next shot reveals the blanketed passenger fully horizontal, not just across her own seat but sprawled across Hayley’s space as well. “This is not real. Her face is literally in my a—,” Hayley wrote. Despite what looks like spacious business class seating with individual screens and ample room, this woman apparently decided the best sleeping arrangement involved using her neighbor as a human body pillow. “My first Emirates experience,” Hayley captioned the post, probably with a mix of disbelief and resignation. Emirates is famous for its luxury travel experience. Think private suites with sliding doors, onboard showers on the A380, and Dom Pérignon champagne in first class. The Dubai-based airline consistently ranks as one of the world’s best, known for spacious cabins, top-tier service, and an entertainment system with thousands of channels. How To Actually Sleep On A Long Flight Sleeping on a plane is tough. Between the cramped quarters, engine noise, and that person three rows back who won’t stop coughing, catching Z’s at 30,000 feet is already a challenge. But there are ways to make it work without turning into someone else’s human pillow. According to the Sleep Foundation, the key is shutting out distractions. Eye masks block cabin light, noise-canceling headphones drown out engine hum, and travel pillows support your neck so that you’re not waking up with your head at a 90-degree angle. Staying hydrated helps too, though you’ll want to balance that with not having to climb over your seatmate every 20 minutes for bathroom breaks. Travel + Leisure recommends snagging a window seat when you can. It gives you a surface to lean against and control over the shade. But here’s a pro tip you might not have considered: Loosen your shoelaces. Tight laces can compress nerves and restrict blood flow, making your feet fall asleep and waking you up midway through your flight. And keep your legs uncrossed. Sitting cross-legged limits blood flow and puts extra stress on your lower spine, which can wake you up. Skip the pre-flight cocktail or coffee, too. Alcohol lowers sleep quality by reducing REM sleep. And caffeine will keep you wired when you’re trying to rest. The Unspoken Rules Of Airplane Etiquette When it comes to personal space on planes, there are actual rules about respecting other people’s boundaries. HuffPost and Consumer Reports break down what you need to know: Armrest protocol: The middle seat passenger gets both armrests because they drew the short straw. If you’re in the aisle or window, you’ve already got perks. Let them have this one. Reclining your seat: Look back first to make sure you’re not crushing someone’s laptop or a parent juggling a…
