Controversial debate: Should you remove shoes on a flight?

Removing shoes on an airplane has sparked controversy for years. Recently, a Reddit user shared their advice on this subject, causing quite a stir. "Selfish and stupid" - some internet users judged.

"Taking off your shoes on a plane is the only way to fly - at least for those like me, who are always hot. I know many people get cold on planes. Still, for some of us, it's the opposite," the user wrote, citing the limited ability to regulate temperature, which forces finding alternative ways to cool down.

The proposal to remove shoes was met with mixed reactions. Some passengers showed clear opposition, emphasizing that it may be unpleasant for other people in the cabin. "It solves your personal problem but creates a problem for everyone around you. Selfish and stupid. What a combination," commented one user.

However, it didn't bother others as long as the feet did not emit unpleasant odors. Some even suggested a compromise, like traveling in sandals.

Besides the debate about removing shoes, the discussion also included advice on appropriate attire for a flight. "Condé Nast Traveler" experts advise avoiding stiff denim clothes or old tracksuits on long journeys. They recommend leggings, comfortable tracksuit sets, and light, easy-to-remove footwear.

They also suggest avoiding belts and shoes with difficult-to-untie laces to make it easier to pass security checks. In summary, the key to a comfortable journey is a thoughtful choice of clothing that won’t restrict movement or cause thermal discomfort.

In the interest of shared comfort, it's certainly worth considering both your own comfort and the well-being of other passengers.
