A flight attendant has gone viral after revealing why cabin crew say hello to passengers when they board a plane.
When you board a plane, you’re often greeted by smiling flight attendants who say hello. This warm welcome may seem a simple courtesy but there’s more to it than meets the eye.
The greeting actually serves several purposes that ensure your safety and comfort during the flight.
And now, one TikToker has explained why it’s so important – and people have reacted.
One person comments: “How times have changed… we used to say hi to be polite – flying has changed so much!”
Another asks: “If I’m on a plane I always just say hi, good morning/afternoon, how are you to a flight attendant, what else would you say?”
Somebody else says: “I am an ex-flight attendant and this is true.”
