The passengers of the flights to Turkey who undo their belt, go out or open the compartments above the head before the full stop of the plane are likely to be fined, according to the new rules issued by the Civil Aeronautical Authority in Turkey, AP reports.
Thus, the commercial companies operating flights to Turkey must change their ads during the flight and tell the passengers to stay with the belts caught until the plane reached the gate or at the end stopping point, writes Agerpres.
Companies must warn passengers that those who violate the procedures will be reported, a circular issued by the Civil Aeronautical Authority in Turkey is shown.
Also, the announcements during the flights should remind the passengers to leave those sitting in the rows in front of them to leave the first of the plane.
According to information in the media in Turkey, those who violate the rules could be fined up to $ 70. The Civil Aeronautical Authority in Turkey did not specify how much the fine would be raised, but it stated that it has decided to modify the regulations as a result of the complaints of the passengers and the inspections that brought to light an increased number of violations of the safety rules.
“Despite the ads that inform the passengers about the rules, many rise before the plane reaches the final position and before the light signal about the seat belts are extinguished. This behavior compromises the safety of passengers and luggage and does not take into account the priority at the output of other travelers,” the civilian authority said.
Passengers who are in a hurry to get up and take their luggage as soon as the light signal about the seat belts is extinguished are a pocket for many travelers.
Many countries have regulations designed to discourage passengers who create problems and most have rules that require people to follow the instructions on catching seat belts.
However, the threat of Turkish authorities on the fine for inadequate behavior after landing is quite unusual to attract attention.
The regulations entered into force earlier this month. For now, there is no information on people who have been fined or airlines who have implemented the new regulations by reporting those who violated them. Turkey is a popular tourist destination, including for Romanians, and attracts millions of visitors from all over the world.
