Think of the most unusual (or disgusting) scene you've ever seen on a plane flight. Now imagine sharing that with more than 745,000 followers on Instagram? This is how "Passenger Shaming" works, an Instagram account dedicated to spreading the most bizarre moments and bad manners seen on flights - and recorded by passengers or commissioners.
The public shaming site was started by Shawn Kathleen — a mom, former police officer and paramedic who worked as a flight attendant for seven years. She came up with the original concept and started the brand on her own approximately five years ago. It has since been featured in most media outlets across the globe and was named one of the “Best 100 Instagram accounts" by Rolling Stone Magazine.
Scroll down and see just how rude people can get while on a plane for yourself!

Maybe she is a subject of random selection and they messed up her bag and she has to repack. Is it a nuisance? Yeah, but so is random selection sometimes.

Parenting Is Hard, Guys

I guess the parents might have been asleep. Could have been a 12 hour flight and the kid was trying to keep themselves busy and not wake mum or dad.

Out of the million things you can do on a plane - watching a movie, listening to music, talking to the person next to you, socializing, being a good fellow passenger - you watch porn... Whoa!

What do you think ?

Boy! Flying these days looks horrible! And to think being a flight attendant was my teenage dream job! I remember traveling with my father in the early 60s, when you wore nice clothing, and acted respectably. Now the staff has to deal with these awful passengers.

Well, flying got much cheaper, so it's not a very special experience now. Standards have fallen pretty low, but I'm not sure it's entirely the passengers' fault. Airline companies do their best to make flying less and less convenient and comfortable, so it's no surprise that some people just don't give a s**t anymore... Personally, I avoid economy class if I can now. Only because the quality of services is so low... Wasn't the case when I started flying intensively 15 years ago.

Some are absolutely disgusting, others out of necessity make the best of the situation.

Exactly. Plus, several of these need context before judgements can be made. This is the internet though and people will feel confident they know the whole story from a single snapshot. I'm glad they aren't judges.
