Excuse me, we value our lives!

"All our flights are non-smoking flights. Please do not smoke in the lavatories as this will set off the smoke detector. Thank you for your attention and have a wonderful flight" The safety video could be heard over the PA system.

Nobody bother anyway.

As usual, you could see passengers reading the newspaper, talking to each other, pretending to sleep and blah blah blah...

It was during meal service and I was pushing my cart to the front row. A man came out from the toilet just i was passing by. Immediately, i smell the cigarette smoke.

#%$&?!@!# 讨厌
Some moron just smoked in the lavatory!!!!

Arghhh, i feel like grabbing the moron by his neck and shake him senseless!! or or or.....maybe hit him on his head with my stainless steel tray!!

It's the same as people using their handphone on flight. Yes, i know..so far, there hasnt been any concrete evidence that shows handphones emission will interfere with the navigation system of the airplane. But heck! Better safe than sorry right? 按全第一

DARN~~ i looked at the man walking back to his seat.
Should i confront him? what if it wasnt him? maybe its the person before him?

I stopped my cart and went into the toilet, making sure there's no smoke or fire anywhere. Pull open the trashbin and check to see there's no cigarette butt laying around that might just catches fire.

This is the kind of stuff that really makes my blood boils!! GRRRRRRR.....The person who discarded the cigarette thinks nothing of it as they happily travel on their way. But other people will have to deal with the consequences of what can happen. HELLO!! We are 35,000feet above sea level! what happen if there's really a big fire? Hallelujah, Amen to all of us.


I used to be a smoker myself, .I know how tough it was to endure 15hrs of flight without a smoke.

很心苦,要我的命喔 Its tough, but thats life, man!
im not asking you not to smoke. Its your life and i dun give a Shit!.
But don't jeopardise the hundreds of lives even if you don't value yours.

At the end of the day, ask yourself, is it worth it?

Its 300plus lifes at stake! i still wanna get married, have kids and live to a ripe old age...

SO PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, i beg you 求求你,
the next time you light up in the plane, think about the consequences

As what mummy says,
"Don't play with Fire"
"Lek inte med elden"
