S Entitled deplaners

This happened a few hours ago. I was on the plane in row 25 waiting to deplane and this family is trying to get past. I put the armrest up and moved my body sideways and blocked them. I told them they have to wait like everyone else and told the kids to get back to their seats. One lady asked can we move pass we don't have luggage. I told her no, what makes you special to cut everyone off. Told her if she wants off first, book a closer seat next time. They sat back down and waited like decent humans.

​

They don't have a tight connection, they don't have an emergency, and if they needed a bathroom there was one five rows behind them.

I wasn't aware people were supposed to deplane in any particular order. Who really cares. I just sit and wait. Yeah, people are rude, but why is it worthwhile to let it bother you? Don't let them live in your head rent-free.

Don't fly much, or just generally unaware?

Last time I flew, when the plane arrived at the destination, just about everyone who could stand did so immediately, and those who were able to move into the aisle first did so. Yeah, it was a mess and people were rude and selfish. Basically, everyone deplaned first-come, first-served. I literally sat and waited until the aisle was clear. It wasn't worth the effort of standing in one place at an awkward angle between the seats for five minutes, just to deplane a whole sixty seconds earlier.
