Passenger reveals the 'big red flag' when flying with a mate – but everyone is saying the same thing | The Sun

A TRAVELLER has revealed the "instant red flag" she looks out for when flying with a mate – but everyone is saying the same thing.

Charlotte Thompson, from Melbourne in Australia, posted a video to TikTok sharing her peculiar hang-up on flights with her pals.

The frequent flyer shared snaps of her and a companion perusing the in-flight film selection together, settling on the 2022 action-adventure comedy The Lost City.

They simultaneously pressed a button to start the film, which stars Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum.

Charlotte said: "Instant red flag if you don't do this with the person you're travelling with. I don't make the travel rules."

People were divided over the merits of watching the same film as your flight companion.

Nick said: "The real red flag is watching The Lost City."

But everyone said the same thing about a niggling detail in Charlotte's video.

Ada said: "It's such a shame because they're almost perfectly in sync but not quite."

Alex said: "I couldn't handle them being slightly out of sync."

Others offered a solution to the distracting discordance between the two screens.

Samantha said: "Just for next time, Emirates has a feature where you can share your screen with the person next to you – so it won't be out of sync."

Charlotte took the backlash in good grace, saying: "I had no idea. That sounded sarcastic, it wasn't – I literally didn't know."

It comes after a woman revealed how her boss fumed at her after she refused to give them her first-class seat on a flight back from a conference.
