"Utterly Senseless" Shocking Results... What on Earth Are People Doing on Planes?

You may have occasionally heard stories about passengers getting caught smoking on airplanes.

It seems completely senseless, but looking into actual cases of Aviation Security Act violations reveals that more than 7 out of 10 incidents were smoking on board.

According to data submitted by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport to the National Assembly, there were 2,557 reported cases of violations of Article 23 of the Aviation Security Act regarding passenger cooperation duties from 2021 through August of this year.

Among these, smoking on board accounted for a staggering 76.5%.

This means that out of every 10 cases, over 7—nearly 8—involved passengers being caught secretly smoking inside the aircraft.

This was followed by disruptive behavior such as verbal abuse, which made up 8.6%.
 
Unauthorized manipulation of doors, emergency exits, and various equipment followed at 2.5%.

Violations of the Aviation Security Act must be viewed as grave crimes that threaten aviation safety, which is directly tied to the lives of hundreds of passengers.

It feels like effective measures need to be established.
