Flight attendants warn it’s gross and dangerous to go barefoot during a flight

If you’re someone who goes on holiday each year or who travels for business you’re likely to have some bad plane habits.

Whether you push the call button when you’re not supposed to or bring smelly food into the cabin (like the guy who brought a whole rack of ribs onboard) we’re all likely guilty of a faux pas or two.

But, one of the most common behaviours that fellow travellers hate is when people take their shoes and socks off.

Flight attendants have previously said that doing so might mean you can’t get your shoes back on, but it's mainly because of disgusting factors that they're warning passengers not to take their shoes off.
