What Not to Take on Airplane
Here’s a hot take: Heelys—the shoes with wheels in the heel—are not for airplanes. I saw a kid try to “roll” down the aisle. The flight attendant nearly sprained an ankle. Unless you’re planning a high-speed chase to the lavatory, leave the wheels at home.
And let’s discuss over-the-top accessories. Giant hoop earrings that look like handcuffs? A belt buckle the size of a dinner plate? You will set off the metal detector, and then you’ll be that person patting down their own waist while everyone stares. Emotional damage.
Also, perfume or cologne in a full-sized bottle? No. Don’t be “the cloud.” You know—the person who douses themselves in scent before boarding. The entire row behind you will have a headache. And the person with allergies? They will pray for a quick landing. Be merciful.
