Airline’s controversial new fine for this common plane habit

If you’re one of those travelers who leaps out of their seat the second the plane touches down, consider this your warning: Turkey’s had enough.

Now, Turkey is officially cracking down.

The Turkish Directorate General of Civil Aviation, led by Kemal Yüksek, has issued a directive to cabin crews: passengers who disregard the disembarkation order by standing before the plane has fully stopped or barging into the aisle before it’s their row’s turn may now face official penalties.

In a recent announcement, Yüksek stated that those who fail to “respect the disembarkation priority of the passengers in front of or around them” can be reported to authorities and hit with an administrative fine under Turkey‘s aviation regulations.

So how much will that impulsive aisle dash cost you? According to The Washington Post, the fine could reach 2,603 Turkish lira, roughly $67 USD.
