Air travel is truly amazing.

Because of it, it's easier than ever before to see the world in all its incredible cultures.

But just because you're on a plane doesn't mean there aren't rules.

And if you break them, there can be dire consequences.

So, from turning off airplane mode to climbing into the overhead compartments, get ready for some things you should absolutely never do on an airplane.

You're listening. You're listening to be amazed.

My last vacation got off to a poor start. I'd only just boarded the plane when the flight attendant told me I had to take off my Batman costume or leave.

It turns out airlines have dress codes. What's more, different airlines have different codes and these can

change depending on the country you're flying to. Geez, confusing or what? See, some countries like

Indonesia are predominantly Muslim and as such dress much more conservatively than other places.

So if you're flying there, it's polite to cover

up before getting on the plane. But it's worth looking into clothing guidelines before getting on any

flight. Dirty, torn, or revealing clothes can breach codes and get you kicked off the plane, which

makes sense, but sometimes so can things as benign as flip-flops.

Seriously. Back in July 2021, Turkish bodybuilder Denise S. Bannar made headlines

when she tried to board an American Airlines flight to Miami. Apparently, her shorts were too short,

so she was duct taped to one of the chairs and left there.

Ahem.

Okay, not really. She was just denied entry onto the plane.

Somebody actually was duct taped to a seat, though, for a very different reason.

But you'll have to stick around to find out about that one.

Anyway, after being refused onto the plane, Sipanar was understandably upset and took the social media to vent her frustrations.
