Class Divide is the Strongest Predictor of Air Rage

May 5, 2016 Leave a Comment

Class warfare has turned into a political struggle between the 1% and the 99%. Now there’s more evidence that air rage is largely based on seat class, according to a study by Katy DeCelles who teaches organizational behaviour at the University of Toronto. “Something like that makes you very aware of the fact that you are not being treated as special as someone else.” The paper concludes that inequality between seat classes is the largest single contributor to air rage. The effect intensifies, DeCelles suggests, when the travellers file past the high rollers during boarding. Airborne inequality also makes the rich behave worse. “It’s a very strong effect,” said DeCelles. Base on the database involved more than one million flights, DeCelles and her co-author compared flights that had separate first and economy classes with those that didn’t. The strongest predictor of air rage, by far, was class divide.
