Never before have I seen a group so boisterous and preposterous on a flight as the one I chanced upon last night. Even before they were seated, cousins decided to cluster in the narrow space between seats to giggle; paan-chewing uncles guffawed at cheesy jokes; cards were dealt and loud squeals of delight erupted...this was just a trailer - when the unsuspecting flight attendants stepped out to perform the drill of pointing out safety procedures catcalls went out and juvenile attempts at imitating their accents did their rounds.
As if all this werent enough, cell phones were switched on to shoot random pictures - of the aircraft's wing, the roof, the cabin luggage, the food trolley, the toilet-occupancy indicators so on and so forth. One individual was also found filming a wailing baby.
I tried my best to shut all the noise off and catch some sleep but it seemed practically impossible inspite of my impeccable reputation to doze in any setting.
Unfortunately it is rather impossible to change flights in mid-air......
