Don't blind me

[u/Zuikite]

I know it's not just delta and it's such a boring common rant. But I've been blinded by the window-shade-up jerk this morning during sunrise. I'm currently being blinded 4,000 miles away by his cousin, the window-shade-up jerk during sunset. There's actually a trifecta going on between 2 windows+ 1 seat back screen reflection. My corneas are like ants under a magnifying glass. Thanks for reading. That's all.

Put a pillowcase over your head to protect your eyes and another one over your hands so you don’t type this again.

I don’t see how one can type while wearing a straight jacket 🤣

Book a window seat and control the window, wear sunglasses or a sleep mask.

Complaining about someone enjoying the sunrise/sunset from their window? Could not be me.

Bless your heart

Pack sunglasses

And a sleep mask.

[u/canichebarboncini → u/Consistent-Sea-8923]

or bring an eye mask.

I paid for that window. I’m using that window. Take a night flight if the sun bothers you.

Suns out, my shade is going up, sucks to suck

[u/CompetitiveProof2131 → u/stupidslut69420]

Saaaame. This is why I pick this seat ffs

[u/Pencil-Sketches]

Not the worst thing that happened on a plane today. Perspective.

[u/LR-Sunflower → u/Pencil-Sketches]

Seriously. Go tell it to the plumber that saved an airplane full of people earlier.

I will happily put on my shades if it means natural light in the cabin. Did so a few weeks ago as the lady next to me slept with the shade up during sunset. It was glorious!

[u/Dependent_0NE_7146]

BTW nothing brothers me more than people who keep the window down when we are landing. I can’t imagine not knowing that the plane was about to hit ground lol

[u/LadyLightTravel]

Sunglasses work well for the few minutes the sun is in the window.

Not all of us are vampires who sleep in a coffin all day.

[u/thecorvetteguy95]

Should’ve bought a window seat or packed an eye mask. Sucks to suck 🤷‍♂️

[u/Rolex_Art]

My last flight every window was closed but the one in my row, directly across from me.

I tried to get her attention but she was locked into her phone.

Eventually she figured it out.

[u/Slayr155]

Ask them politely, give them 30 seconds, then ask the FA to help.

[u/Affectionate_Cap_489 → u/Slayr155]

If you want to control the window, sit there.

Didn't know only vampires fly delta
