The debate around plane etiquette often involves issues of seat swapping, reclining and undressing – but it seems there could now be a new problem to contend with.

The internet has been left horrified after a video emerged of a plane passenger shamelessly dangling his hands over a fellow traveler’s TV screen. 

The clip was originally shared on Reddit to the Mildly Infuriating sub-thread alongside a caption that read: ‘The person sat in front of my cousin on his long-haul flight…’

And other users on the discussion forum did not hold back with their thoughts on the matter.

In the nine-second clip, the bewildered traveler, who appears to be sitting in a middle seat, films as his fellow passenger encroaches on his space.

The man settled in the row front can be seen reaching around the back of his chair with his hands drooping over the on-board screen.

Seemingly without a care in the world, he initially beings by tapping on the TV which interrupts the program being played.

Then, he interlocks his fingers, picks at his nails and even strokes the monitor.

The whole while the cameraman remains quiet – but it is not known what happened when the recording came to an end. 

Dozens of viewers were quick to pile into the comment section to offer their own thoughts and cheeky solutions. 

One wrote: ‘I refuse to believe someone is this obnoxiously inconsiderate.’

Another added: ‘They get one polite excuse me. Next is a very wet fake sneeze with my water.’

A third said: ‘Don’t accept people’s sh*t behavior like this. Say something.

And someone else simply commented: ‘I would’ve wiped a booger on his hands.’

Earlier this week, travel experts weighed in on the unwritten rules for plane passengers catching long-haul and overnight flights.

The list included how to take advantage of spare seats respectfully, dressing appropriately and avoiding eating smelly snacks.
