Description: "Bad Behavior On Planes Is Getting Worse," says the International Air Transport Association (IATA)—not that the skies have ever been bastions of mannerly calm. Tight spaces, vanishing perks, and packed routes mean shortened tempers. Politics don't help: After both Brexit and the 2016 U.S. election there were spikes in incidents of in-air conflict among passengers. Where does the anger come from, and what about cruising at 30,000 feet brings it out of us? Is anyone actually entitled to the arm rest? What happens when fights erupt mid-flight? Who's in charge up there, and what are the consequences for those involved? This week, we get fired up about airbound anger management.
