A FLIGHT attendant has revealed the worst thing passengers do when they leave the plane.
While you might be in a rush to get off the flight, ignoring the crew is a big no-no.
The anonymous flight attendant explained on Reddit it was their biggest pet peeve when passengers didn't say goodbye or thank you while leaving the cabin.
They wrote: "Not acknowledging us or looking us in the eye, not saying please and thank you.
"We are people, too. Please treat us with respect."
Another crew member agreed, adding: "Thanking the pilot while deplaning and ignoring me or not even looking at me — how insulting.

Caroline Skahn, who has worked as a flight attendant for five years for American Airlines, also said why it is rude to ignore crew as you get on the plane.
She said: "You'd be surprised how many people step on board and won't even make eye contact with us but will still try to hand us their trash on their way in without saying a word.
"We are only human, but if your flight attendants can say good morning to over 200 people in a row, I think passengers should be able to say it back at least once."
