Woman slammed for 'disrespectful' sleeping position at airport

A traveller has been heavily criticised on social media for the place the decided to take a nap at a busy airport gate.

The woman was snapped snoozing on the floor in front of the chairs, but blocking two seats - resulting in her being labelled "inconsiderate".

The photo was posted on the Instagram page travelcreeps with the caption: "Becky, 24 yr old "influencer" takes a moment to reflect and enjoy the stares she's getting from her followers by selfishly taking up two seats" and has been inundated with comments.

The photo has received hundreds of likes and comments, with some saying she was being rude while others disagree and say it wouldn't have been difficult to ask her to move.

A number of people complained that the traveller was "disrespectful" (travelcreeps/Instagram)

One person wrote: "I would of stepped over her and sat down, how disrespectful is so bad on many levels".

And another agreed: "I agree, I would just say "excuse me" I am about to sit on the seat so unless you want my feet on your body I would suggest you move".

But others defended her, with one person saying: "If anyone wanted a seat they could've asked her to move so no one wanted a seat".

Another adding: "It's obvious no one wanted a seat if u [SIC] look theres other empty seats they could have asked her to move".

And a third said: "Damn, she is tired, let her get some rest. There are plenty other seats".

But, this isn't the first time an airport passenger has been shamed.

Two passenger were caught getting a little too cosy on their flight, which has been branded ' jetflix and chill '.

The picture shows a woman kissing a man whilst straddling him - definitely bedroom behaviour - in the middle of a busy flight.
