However, some users criticised the act, calling it “unprofessional”.
“Wtf is wrong with them for making their employee’s dance like this ????” asked one user. “As a cabin crew member, I don’t appreciate it. It’s not at all professional,” commented another.
“That’s not professional at all airlines should maintain some standard just for clout chasing nd attracting more guest compromising with crew’s respect is not fair,” expressed a third user.
“I wonder who comes up with these ideas and, more importantly, who actually approves them. There’s absolutely nothing exciting or creative about this. Where’s the decency, the decorum? The poor crew has to put up with this nonsense just because someone in management thought it was a brilliant move,” wrote one user. “That’s why no one takes cabin crew seriously in India. Please just focus on safety, security and customer service,” added another.
