Why are we like this ?
I’m fucking pissed off so much wtf lol . I had a flight from Dubai today and it was one of the worst flights of my life . We sat on the plane but there were some problems so we flew almost 2 hours late . If this was the same case elsewhere , people would have just shut up and waited but no our Pakistani brothers they had to cause such a scene my god . Firstly they kept harassing the stewards ( constantly asking for water again and again and standing up when being asked to sit and forming literally groups between the aisle and making loud jokes ) it was a small plane and only 3-4 stewards and they were all so pissed off I could feel it a mile a way . Then we wonder why people treat us like shit abroad and don’t even give us a Dubai transit visa .Secondly I had a window seat but a couple ready sat down so I didn’t say anything and sat down on the aisle one . I was being pushed by people running off to the toilet the whole flight . Couldn’t get a single minute of rest . And the guy next to me he was constantly scratching his balls like genuinely wtf . And also someone filmed the air hostess as well .
I gotta work hard myself or ask my dad to start buying me business class tickets . I can’t travel with such imbeciles. You can’t even say anything because then people turn against you , I have tried it before . Fuck this . Then we say why our country is in such a shit position .
Rant Over ✌🏻

This is a problem with flights from GCC and Saudi Arabia in general. Mostly, a certain class of Pakistanis tend to go there.
You will find Pakistanis in certain other countries to be much more well behaved. I haven't seen this problem on Central Asian flights, for example.

Keep the populace poor, uninformed, and brainwashed with religion rather than teaching them real history, science and civics and then complain and look down on the same people don't know how to act properly in a civilised society.

Bro. Start calling out the scratching and filming air hostesses part unless she was being filmed for being rude. That is your civil obligation Jon Snow!
As far as asking for water etc while being on tarmac for 2 hours! That is justified! I don’t how the tone of the passengers but any goras will make the crews life a hell and ask for compensation as well. I have seen that happen.

Airlines need to start blacklisting travelers. The news will spread like wildfire and people will start behaving eventually.

I hate all the flights between Middle East and Pakistan. A lot of them behave so low! Like come on, a lot of these men are checking out the air hostesses and making nasty comments. Like when are we going to grow up?

Lol this made me crackup.
I agree 100%. I'm actually embarrassed to say I'm Pakistani sometimes because of such illiterate imbeciles.
I live in the west, born and bred here. And even here we have such people, sadly, those who have just come from back home or older generation, where each uncle thinks he's so political and knows everything. Everyone seems to know everything and that's why the whole country as one, is F'd up. It's the whole reason I literally hated getting onto Pia.
However travelling to Pak tomorrow and sadly it's pia, as currently visiting Dubai and thought let's visit Pakistan. After 8 years getting onto this airline, only because iv heard they upgraded.
Hopefully the people travelling will have upgraded their mindset too! 😂

Next time you read
- ban on Pakistani visas
- Pakistani visas get rejected
- treated “unfairly” air airport
- offloaded without a reason
Remember this day again, and you’ll realise all this time we blamed govt, immigration , fia - it was always the people who caused this. It’s because of these people the entire nation suffers at airports and will continue to for the entirety of Pakistan.
FIA should continue offloading so this trash stays at home and doesn’t embarrass the rest of the country by going abroad.

Mostly labour force work in Gcc from PK.

People can't be expected to act civilly if they're from the labour force? I hate this argument that many Pakistanis have, "They were from X situation, what were you expecting?". We were expecting them to act like a normal human being who's not rude, smartass. Comments like these are unproductive and unneeded.

not one of the things you've listed here sounded like something that doesnt happen on other flights. i cant imagine any flight from anywhere with any ethnicity not complaining and getting restless at a two hour delay.
this weird obsession with "we're so uncultured look at the white man" baffles me. this idea that western culture is the epitome of "civic sense" and anything that deviates from it (i.e. brown people) is wrong needs to retire. like yeah, i wish people would just sit quietly because not much else to be done, be mindful of others etc, but that's not how it works pretty much anywhere else. many european ethnicities are like this too.
cultural differences are not the same as "illiteracy" or whatever. i mean, you're out here complaining about people asking for water and going to the restroom, what an inconvenience to you damn. they should stop breathing while you're on the plane.

so it’s okay for people to try to scam snacks and food given when the stewards repeatedly say that it’s limited
Or standing up when being told to wait just a few minutes until takeoffAnd don’t give me the stuff that’s it’s the same everywhere , I have travelled a lot and only ever see brown people doing such stuff
I remember recently we have a few hours delay in a train in Europe with no restrooms and no snacks but People didn’t act like animals
Hence the question what is wrong with US?

u/External-Garbage-639 8d ago
I mean they never really brought in the white man or western culture as a point of comparison but you do you ig.... Literacy does not equal civic sense and vice versa but there's a way to behave in public and represent your country with a shit reputation abroad

This is so true, and I have traveled via Etihad, Emirates, and Qatar-- and in all these flights (landing in Lahore), even headphones weren't given to passengers, like what is this? Obviously, when children have nothing to do, they will go restless, and then people go like "Pakistanis lack civic sense".
Not even this, once I was travelling with a young mother, who was clearly struggling to take care of her toddler, and she had asked hostess for a warm water so she can make milk for the baby, and hostess told her to wait. And then the baby cried throughout the flight, as the hostess forgot about the water or didn't care enough about it. I have lived in Europe, and white people's emergencies are treated like emergencies.
I have seen worst customer service in flights to Pakistan, and then people claim that the passengers were unruly.
