Airplane etiquette
When did it become acceptable to rush down the aisle to the front of the plane as soon as the plane lands so you can be the first off? This happened to us on all three of our flights for the Thanksgiving Break and I have noticed it a lot more lately. I think this is the Southwest-ization of our airways where everyone thinks that everything is a free-for-all. Now I'm all for bypassing someone who seems to be surprised that the plane has actually landed, but this is starting to annoy me. On one occasion, the lady had so much stuff that we were stuck in our seats and could not retrieve our own bags, and therefore were passed by 5 others from the rear before J had to block the aisle so we could get out.

I agree. This does seem to be happening a lot. Sometimes I question if I am invisible because I was visible surely the person would notice that they are cutting in line the 6'5" leprechaun with a mean look on his face. Even if you are on a Southwest flight, there is no excuse for this. We all have someplace that we are going. If you are not on a Southwest flight, you should select the closest seat to the exit that is still available. I pick 2A...best seat around...Seriously though, I am 6'5". Do you not see me?
