What is proper etiquette for airplane seats?
Fox News correspondent Matt Finn discusses if passengers that recline their seat are seen as ‘rude’ on ‘Fox News @ Night.’
A woman recently took to TikTok to reveal what she called some "unpopular opinions" that are sometimes argued by travelers.
Keegan Acton, of Scottsdale, Arizona, shared the video message with her 65,000-plus followers — saying "going to the airport fills me with a type of rage."
Her most unpopular opinion was that she doesn’t mind a crowded plane aisle after the aircraft lands.

"I always see TikToks of people being like, ‘My God, I can't stand when people immediately stand up once the plane lands,’ [but] I think there’s nothing wrong with that," she said in the video, which she captioned, "clearly triggered from flying today."

She continued, "I don't think there's anything wrong with wanting to stand and stretch your legs. I don't think there's anything wrong with getting your stuff in the overhead bin and having it ready for when it's like your turn to exit the plane."
The content creator also said she believes travelers have more space in the window seat rather than the aisle seat.

"When I have a window seat, I feel like I can… lean against the wall. There's like a little gap there for me," she explained, adding, "I just feel like I'm more space on the window side and I like a cool view and some entertainment watching the clouds."
For travelers who enjoy sitting next to their significant other on a flight, Acton said she doesn’t think that’s necessary.

"I do not think that you need to sit next to your significant other on a plane. I feel like what I always see happens is… the husband has the aisle seat, and the wife has to sit in the middle," she said.
She added, "I don't think the wife needs to be uncomfortable on the flight [and] sit in the middle just to sit next to her husband."

Acton also addressed how she felt about TSA rules and "rude" agents.
Acton alleged that TSA agents have "yelled" when passengers weren't following rules in security lines. (iStock)
"I didn't know the rules. It's different everywhere. Like, please don't yell at me. I'm sensitive. I'm just a girl," she said, adding that she has been yelled at while going through security.
Additionally, Acton blasted passengers who don’t put their carry-on luggage in the overhead bin correctly.
"You are an idiot if you cannot put your suitcase in the overhead bin the correct way," she said.

She added, "You’re supposed to put [it] on your side so it can make room for more people. It's so inconsiderate."
Acton even called out passengers who recline their seats once in the air.
"I think the people who lean their seat backs are a-------. I know that you have every single right to do that. I know your legs are probably long. It's probably more comfortable," she explained.

She continued, "It’s just kind of, like, inconsiderate to the person behind you."
When it comes to deplaning, Acton said she doesn't mind when passengers crowd the aisle, even though other travelers sometimes say they are bothered by this move.? (iStock)
Acton also said she gets frustrated with inconsistent security line timing, "anxiety inducing" boarding processes, space between gates and people who crowd the baggage claim area.
Rosalinda Randall, a California-based etiquette expert and trainer, told Fox News Digital via email that individuals refuse to "adhere to social norms" often.
Randall said that when it comes to the proper way to exit an airplane, passengers should wait to deplane until it’s their turn unless communicated otherwise to a flight attendant in advance.

"Unless you have a connecting flight, the job interview of a lifetime or are going to be late for your wedding, wait your turn," she said.

If you are in a hurry, Tandall said, alert a flight attendant prior to landing of your urgency, politely explaining to others around you that you need to get up first and expect uncooperative passengers in the midst.
Randall also commented on whether it’s proper to recline the airplane seat while on a flight.
She said, "As paying passengers, we should be able to recline whenever we want. However, it becomes an issue when we enter someone else’s space."
She recommended considering a few factors before pressing the recline button on your next flight.

Randall suggested people avoid reclining during meal times, reclining only half-way if the person behind you is working on a laptop or holding a child and seeking assistance if there becomes an issue with space among passengers.
