AIRPLANE ETIQUETTE...having just flown, something struck me. Do you believe that the person at the window seat controls the window shade or is it's the row's window and all members of the row get to request that the shade be up or down? Have you ever asked the window person to open or close the shade, or heard anyone else ask? I haven't. That's why they call this the "silly, random, fun" section
I love the idea of rock, paper, scissors as a valid voting method. I have never seen a person ask the window person to move the shade and I would never do that.
I always ask the pilot. It's one of the many reasons I can't fly anymore.
