"Would this piss you off?" Gross inflight conduct captured

A plane passenger has sparked outrage online after a photo surfaced of her draping her long hair over the back of the plane seat and into a fellow traveller's face.

The picture was shared to Twitter, and shows the woman's long hair draped down over the other passenger's tray table.

Twitter user Anthony shared the image, asking his followers "Would this piss you off?"

The post has racked up thousands of likes and comments, with social media users all chiming in to decide how they would deal with the entitled traveller.

One critic even came up with a way to get their own back on the passenger, saying, “I would quietly lower the tray, let her hair fall in and then close it up again."

“It would piss me off and I’d tell her to keep it in her seat. If she gets pissy, offer to cut it.”

Another offered a revenge strategy, saying "I'd start braiding that s***".

Another critic added, “I totally agree with you, absolutely unnecessary and kind of gross for that matter, how would she like it if the person behind her sneezed into her hair instead of their tissue. That might teach her!”

This is not the first instance of long-haired travellers making the journey difficult for others.

In November last year, a TikTok video went viral of a plane passenger obscuring the person behind's TV screen with her long hair.

In an act of revenge, the irritated passenger put chewing gum, a lollipop and coffee into her now-tangled locks.
