Air passengers have become much more confrontational during the pandemic

AIR PASSENGERS, everyone seems to agree, have become more loutish in recent years. Lurid stories of fliers kicking off inside cabins before getting kicked out of them have become staples of newspapers and social-media sites. That, though, may just be a product of a willingness by witnesses to whip out a phone to record every fracas. In fact in 2019, which might be considered the last normal year for the air-travel industry, America’s Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) launched just 146 investigations into incidents of unruly behaviour by passengers on American flights, despite more than 1bn fliers passing through the country’s airports. That was a typical year for such behaviour, and by historical standards it was a good one (see chart).
