Clearly you travel with a worse class of passenger than I do.

I doubt it. Many people are messy by nature and in the overtight
confines of airline seats crammed in by other passengers, you have the
makings of a mess. If you doubt me, go check the floor of the cabin
30mins after the sheep have been fed and stuff cleared away.

I've never seen anyone create such a mess, except for infants and their
careless mothers.

True, this group are particularly messy.

Banning infants is of course outside the scope of this discussion,
although it would have my full support.

At least they need to coral kids and their selfish mothers into one
section of the plane to keep the noise away from decent passengers.

What next?
...a fellow passenger decides to bring a take-away curry on board.

Would that be ok for you?

Guilty as charged. Curried chicken salad, mango chutney tort,
I'd have to think hard to figure out all the times I've brought on
curry.
Then there is the times we've brought on various cheeses. We
also had various wraps, chicken wings, salami slices, carrots,
a few spreads. We're usually the envy of many of our neighbors
(we share).


Of course. I've done it myself (on domestic travel). I created no mess.
All of the residue remained inside the paper bag in which I took it on
board.

You may be a rare model passenger but still you haven't considered the
smell of curry on board which some people might find unpleasant.

Again, what's the difference between the curry I bring, and that
served on board? And really, considering some of the dreck served
on board, I can't imagine it'd be any worse.
