I've actually heard of people leaving their hp on the WHOLE flight, even while still in the air! That's even worse.. Those are really selfish morons.
ReplyDeleteTurn on after touch down is not as bad as those leaving it on in the air.....
ReplyDeleteThey should fine those people who flout the rules. It's not like calls or messages cannot wait.
ReplyDeleteI had a similar experience after the plane touchdown to Singapore on my return from Taiwan.
ReplyDeleteI guess these people were too looking forwrad to their family members.
Don't like such people too, they tend to believe that "accidents can happen to any plane except for the planes they are in".

ReplyDeletePerhaps their phones were on Flight Mode. Still, mobile phones should be switched off during take-off and landing.

That may be true, but do you want to take risk?

Some people just cannot wait a few more minutes.

Agree with you regarding what those people think.

Haha... actually I also don't feel easy if I leave my phone at home.
But those people in the plane are different. They have the phones. Just that they should wait a few more minutes...
hehe, i always switched off my phone :-) but then eager to switch back on once landed :D
ReplyDeletei always switched off my hp completely until i reached the place safely.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I'm pretty sure the cell phone ban is obsolete now because the plane's electronics are much better now. I think I read that somewhere.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I do find it weird that some people just can't stand offline and unconnected to the world.
I think it's more the ignorance than the selfishness. Case in point, many people are still not aware that using a hp is unsafe at petrol stations esp when one is filling up gas. I've seen people using/answering their phone and it gave me the creeps everytime..
ReplyDeleteWe should take this people and throw him or her into a jail! :/
ReplyDeletesaucer
ReplyDeleteWait until the plane stops.

I also never turn off the cell phone at gas station. But I don't make call there.

At least a fine!
I also can't live without my hand phone, or more specifically my iPhone! Haha!
ReplyDeleteBut I am very considerate and will not switch on my iPhone until I am inside the airport terminal! What's wrong waiting for a few more minutes right? : )
