Keep the avoiding delays and security checks in mind: It helps to wear footwear that you can easily take off for security checks. Don’t bring large bottles becaue they can cause a delay for everyhone behind you. Do what you can to keep the queue moving.

Reclining seats: If you want to recline your seat – wait until the plane is in the air and everybody is comfortable. Try not to violate the personal space of the passenger behind you.

Personal Hygiene
on long flights it is a nightmare to sit right beside a person who smells of sweat or too much perfume. Take a shower before your flight and don’t use too much perfume or cologne.

Don’t read over the shoulders of other people: It is disrespectful and annoying, so bring your own books or magazine if you want to kill time with reading.
Put a privacy filter on your laptop’s screen or cellphone so wandering eyes will never have a choice.
