Talk about a travel nightmare!

A TikTok user recently shared avideoon the social media platform of a less-than-ideal seatmate she had while on an airplane.

“I was confused at first but thought it was gonna be a one-time thing,” the TikTok user wrote over the clip at one point, before the traveler was then captured extending his arm for more aerial shots multiple times.

In the caption of her post, the woman wrote, “Thank god it was only a 3 [hour] flight 🥵.”

“There is no way there is something to film that many times,” one person wrote, as another said, “Should have closed the window 😂.”

“When someone does this to a literal stranger in their personal space, it’s just plain rude,” one other individual commented. “People need to learn courtesy and boundaries, and ask before invading someone’s space.”

Others, meanwhile, sympathized with the man who repeatedly took photos of outside the aircraft with his cell phone.

“Maybe that person hasnt ever been on a plane so they’re excited,” one commenter said, while one more stated, “Just let him take a few pictures I don’t see a problem he likes it to enjoy it together ❤ be nice.”
