This Is The Most Orderly Deplaning You’ll Ever See

Anyone who flies often knows the chaos that is deplaning an aircraft. The instant that seat belt light goes off (or sometimes before) people are up in the aisle grabbing bags and jockeying for position. With tight connections to make and often late arrivals, I understand the stress. I’ve been there myself.

But it is refreshing to see something so completely different you wonder it was staged.

Oil Workers Orderly Deplaning

Check out this video of a WestJet charter flight for oil rig employees deplaining. There is no rush. There is no stress. Simply row-by-row calm deplaning of the aircraft. Can’t say I’ve ever seen anything like it.

Such a stark contrast to the typical experience. Most flights I’ve been on at least (roughly) go row-by-row. But often you’ll get a rude passenger that pushes through everyone to get off sooner. ‘Casue saving 20 seconds is just that important.

Have you ever had a deplaning experience this orderly?

This comes from corporate culture and traveling together so frequently. Everyone has adopted this habit, it’s reinforced every week and becomes the accepted way. Newcomers would adopt it after one trip. It would never happen this way if the passengers were always strangers.

I take a regional public transit bus to Denver every day. Getting off is exactly like this: each row stands up only when it’s their turn to get off the bus, no one crashes the aisle. Amazing. We don’t all travel together on the same bus every day, since the bus comes every 10 minutes, but there is still a common culture.

Guess they all know they have to see each other later so why make someone else angry
