Passengers tend to only think of themselves when they’re at 36,000 feet. I’ve seen folks trim their nails (including their toenails), change diapers, and more right at their seats. One woman on a recent Alaska Airlines flight decided to give herself a manicure complete with polish with no regard for how the acetone odor might impact the other people seated around her.

The incident occurred on a flight between Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and Belize’s Philip S. W. Goldson International Airport (BZE). This is selfish, could make others ill from the fumes, and could also cause quite the mess if the nail polish spills during turbulence.

Anthony’s Take: Show a little common courtesy and don’t groom yourself at your seat. This especially goes for personal care that is gross and/or smelly.
