Outrage after female plane passenger spotted sleeping on ‘dirty’ floor while male traveller lies across seats
A PHOTOGRAPH of two passengers sleeping on a plane has sparked outrage with social media users.
In the picture, a man wearing shorts is seen resting while stretched out across three plane seats with his feet toward the camera.
Beneath him is a woman lying down on the floor of the plane.
The photo was captioned with: "QUESTION: Would you ever lay on the floor of an airplane? (but in other news, dude seems awfully chivalrous!)"
The photo has received over 14K likes since it was posted earlier this week by .
The two don’t seem bothered by the setup as they both appear to be sleeping soundly.
However, those on social media had more than enough to say about it - including whether people should sleep on the floor and whether the man should have given up his seats to the woman.
One succinctly commented “Yuck no!!”
Another person wrote: “I would never be that tired.”
One person warned: “As a Senior Cabin Crew I tell you: Please, Please, Pleaseeee!!! for the love of God DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT even walk bare feet on an airplane floor, Even more, do not Dare laying down on it If you love yourself!!”
One disgusted person wrote: “Not even on the seat. You know how many strangers pass gas on those. Eewww!!”
However, there were at least a couple more people who agreed they would sleep on the ground if they were tired enough.
One person defending the man wrote: “I would if I was tired enough...and you never know if she offered to sleep down there and let him have the seats.
"I display 'chivalry' for my husband equally as much as he does for me. I don’t think it’s fair to assume guys always need to give everything up.”
The anonymous post did not reveal when or on what airline the unusual sleeping arrangement took place.
