A heated debate has erupted online after a woman took to social media to slam passengers who wear pyjamas on flights, branding them 'selfish' and 'disrespectful'.
The traveller, whose post went viral, argued that aeroplanes are public spaces and should be treated with the same decorum as any other shared environment. 'It's not your living room!' she fumed.
The Pyjama Debate Takes Off
Many agreed with her stance, suggesting that wearing sleepwear in public shows a lack of consideration for fellow passengers. 'There's a time and place for pyjamas – 30,000 feet in the air isn't it,' one commenter wrote.
However, others defended the choice, citing comfort during long-haul flights. 'If I'm spending 12 hours on a plane, I'll wear what makes me comfortable,' countered another traveller.
Airline Etiquette Under Scrutiny
The discussion has reignited conversations about appropriate travel attire and general flight etiquette. While some airlines maintain dress codes for premium cabins, most economy sections have no formal clothing requirements.
Aviation experts suggest this debate reflects broader tensions in air travel post-pandemic, as passengers readjust to shared spaces and differing comfort levels.
Where do you stand in the great pyjama debate? Is sleepwear acceptable flight attire or should passengers dress more formally when taking to the skies?
