The moment the seatbelt sign goes off, a bunch of people always stand in the aisle, even though the exit door won’t open for several minutes and even though several of them are a dozen rows from their belongings.
They can’t deboard yet, and are only making themselves an impediment, so those in forward rows can’t even try to access the bins. In this photo, like on most flights, the majority of people in the forward seats can’t stand, because the aisle is filled with people who can’t deboard yet, likely because the door hasn’t opened yet.
This saves the bargers at best 30 seconds at the expense of everyone else forward in the plane, and it’s very rude.
The problem is obviously that the people moved forward, not that they're standing... Standing/stretching makes total sense from every angle. It confuses me greatly how many people in the thread are mad that people stand up.
