A WOMAN was caught painting her nails during a flight – but her behavior has left people divided.
The passenger was spotted on an easyJet flight with a pot of nail varnish, painting her fingernails.
The image was posted on Reddit on the "mildlyinfurating" forum, titled: "This woman painting her nails on a 3 hour plane journey."
They explained in the comments: "Every half hour she'd open it up and apply a new coat.
"My brother, who has special needs and is very sensitive to smells, was with me and was close to vomiting.
"It's a literal solvent in the air. It's inconsiderate, and basic plane etiquette to not release solvents into the air."

They added that they asked her to stop, as did four other passengers and a flight attendant but she refused.
Hundreds of people commented on the post, and many were just as horrified by the woman's behaviour, calling it rude.
One person wrote: "I love doing my nails, but I would never do them in such an enclosed space where people can't escape the fumes. Holy crap that's rude."
Another agreed: "My brain can't comprehend this level of entitlement and selfishness."

A third added: "Wow this might be the most annoying plane thing I have ever seen."
Others shared their own stories of it happening: "Happened on a flight I was on; flight attendant came over and shut that down within a minute for degrading the air quality."
Someone else added: "I tried that once when I was younger. Flight attendant shut me down quickly too. I cringe when I think about what a ninny I was."
But not everyone agreed – some said they "didn't see the problem" while others said they "didn't mind the smell".
One person wrote: "People are bothered by everything and anything. Don’t fly then. I wouldn’t."
Cabin crew member Lisa Kulpa, who works for a major airline, said you should never bring nail varnish onto a flight.

Speaking to The Points Guy, she said: "Things to not do or bring in flight: nail clippers, nail polish, nail polish remover — these products will make the whole plane smell, and some people get sick from it."
Earlier this week, a woman was slammed for giving herself a pedicure on a flight with her bare feet out on the seats.
