Passengers yet again evacuating via slides with their luggage.

Many passengers also stopped to film inside the engine and had to be ordered away.

People are fking awful.

It’s the start of the end of humans. Getting more and more inhumane and deserving of a good kicking.

I love many people, I detest people in general.

Its a very simple solution.

Anyone filmed evacuating with luggage gets put on a worldwide no fly list for 20 years.

Because everyone commenting on an evacuation would be perfect. You don't know how you'd react in the situation. It's easy to type and say you'd do things differently.

Everyone who exits a slide with had luggage, just needs to go on a no fly list. Sorted.

I've got some sympathy. I don't know frontier, but in Ryan Air in order to get out of your seat you have to shift your hand luggage so I imagine it's quicker to take it with you.

Fairly sure that allowing hand luggage to remain in places which would impede exit from the aircraft is a complete no-no, so not sure exactly what you're referring to here re Ryan Air.

Exactly, They are supposed to be either in the overhead locker or under the seat in front so they are not in the way.

Plus of course ryanair only allow cabin bags of such a small size they probably aren't physically capable of forming an obstruction.

I wonder where he came from. DIA is out in the arse end of no-where; it's not like Heathrow where he could have lived on the perimeter road and just felt like jumping the fence one evening.
I also wonder where the hell he was going.

Awaits normal suspects to come along and presume his ethnicity!

Try and work it out yourself.

And how do you propose identifying them beyond doubt?

The flight staff settle for off your lap at best, so just on the floor.

I did.

Something reactive doesn’t change what happened. And I judge it’ll have zero prohibitive value given it’s an atypical, high stress scenario.

So not “sorted”.

Or defining 'luggage '. Including handbag over shoulder? Attached to belt? How big? A laptop is luggage but not a phone? A jacket? Etc...

The procedure varies very slightly airline to airline. The one I work for says very clearly, take nothing with you. Very simple.

Amazing how many people in this thread are so wedded to their handbags and possessions that they would rather sacrifice other people in an emergency than do EXACTLY what the fking instructions say and LEAVE ALL PERSONAL ITEMS! And the list of excuses being trotted out on this thread are disgraceful.

ANY ITEM
ANY BAG
ANY SIZE

If you are found on the runway in the vicinity of an airplane with slides deployed with anything other than the clothes on your body. 20 year no fly list

The great thing is that on most flights, they KNOW who you are. And if its at the airport, there's CCTV.


Funny how this wasn't a problem when the JAL flight crashed at Haneda a couple years ago. Everyone in that high trust, high IQ, advanced society did what they were supposed to. Evacuated an entire A350 in minutes, whilst on fire!

... no-one leaving the plane appeared to be carrying hand luggage - safety agencies have warned for years that pausing to collect carry-on bags during an evacuation risks lives.

I guess the numerous air safety staff we have here know better...
