Publishing timestamp: 2024-07-01 20:50:19
Summary
Japan's two largest commercial airlines, Japan Airlines and All Nippon Airways, have updated their websites with "customer harassment" policies in response to rising instances of abuse towards airline staff. The policies outline behaviors that constitute harassment and consequences for travelers who engage in such behavior. Incidents of air rage have increased in the United States, but Asian airlines have not experienced the same level of viral incidents. However, even in Japan, incidents of customer harassment have occurred, leading to stricter measures being taken to protect airline employees.
