A passenger on board United Airlines' flight 939 from London Heathrow to San Francisco engaged in behavior that raised concerns among fellow travelers. According to a reader, identified as Dan P, the passenger "made sure to touch everything with her bare feet" during the flight on Monday. Dan P shared photos showing the individual propping her feet up on the seat’s television, standing on the seat cushion, and resting her feet directly on the seat.
Expressing his frustration, Dan P stated: "Lady next to me in Polaris really making sure to touch everything with her bare feet. It’s the reason I make sure to wipe down everything in these pods, even the footwells." He further suggested that there should be a rule against such behavior for reasons of health and safety.
United's Polaris business class provides passengers with slippers and socks as part of their amenity kit. This is intended to ensure that even if passengers remove their shoes, they do not need to have bare feet exposed during the flight.
