A travel vlogger has triggered a strong reaction online after sharing her experience on a flight from Bangkok to India. She pointed out how the cabin was left messy by passengers, raising concerns about cleanliness and basic manners during travel.
Sandhya Majji shared a clip on Instagram showing seats filled with trash. The video, captioned “Bangkok to India flight,” shows wrappers, tissues, and other waste left behind by passengers. She called the situation “shameful” and questioned why people don’t clean up after themselves.
She wrote, “Isn’t it the responsibility of parents to either control their kids or clean up after them?” She also mentioned that this was not a one-time incident. “I see trash left behind on flights all the time, even by
adults, especially on flights full of Indians,” she added.
The vlogger compared the condition of the cabin to “being in a government bus in a village in India,” while stressing that such behaviour is not acceptable anywhere.
She Points Out Impact On Flight Staff
Majji also explained how such actions can affect airline operations. She said that when passengers leave the cabin dirty, it takes extra time for the crew to clean it before the next flight.
“These kinds of actions also lead to flight delays, because the flight attendants have to make sure the aircraft is clean before the next takeoff,” she noted.
Another Incident Leaves Her Shocked
She also shared a separate experience about a dirty airplane washroom. According to her, the condition was extremely unhygienic. “Once, I saw a toilet where a man had peed all over the floor, with tissues scattered everywhere, it was completely wet and filthy. A flight attendant had to clean it with her hands. I felt so sorry for her,” she said.
She described such behaviour as “incredibly disrespectful,” especially towards the staff who have to deal with it.

Internet Reacts To The Video
Her post quickly got attention, with many people sharing their views. Some agreed with her and criticised such habits, while others spoke about how behaviour during travel reflects on the country.
A user wrote, “Indians behave like this everywhere in the world even in their own country.”
Another said, “Indians are the biggest challenge for India’s growth.”
A person shared, “On my last flight from Delhi to London a lady had changed her babies diaper and thrown it under the seat. The rest of the plane looked worse than your video.”
Another comment read, “It’s really sad to see this. When we travel, we represent our own country by going to another country. Why do people forget this?”
Someone also said, “Why do they do this? Cuz keeping places clean is not rocket science.”
