There are those of us who travel for business, spending precious mid-flight hours getting reports done and catching up on emails. Then there are those of us who fly for pleasure, taking trips to refuel, explore the world, and\/or visit family.<\/span><\/p>\n

When we fly for pleasure, planes become our work-free zones where we can relax uninterrupted and indulge in our favorite guilty pleasures. Read a trashy magazine, watch a cheesy movie, eat a favorite snack, drink a glass of wine (or three) or simply take a nap. Why wouldn\u2019t you? You have nowhere else to be right!<\/span><\/p>\n

In a recent survey, we asked fellow passengers what their in-flight guilty pleasures were. Here are some of our favorites.<\/span><\/p>\n

In-Flight Guilty Pleasure:<\/span><\/h1>\n

\u201cI refuse to work during a flight. I order a glass of wine, eat a chocolate bar and read the SkyMall magazine in search of some unnecessary item to purchase.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“Read, read and read some more. I never have time to sit down and read in my busy everyday life, so flying is a chance for me to catch up on my favorite novel or magazine.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“One word: Sleep! I pop a Xanax and catch up on some much needed rest!”<\/span><\/p>\n

“I hate to fly so I usually use it as an excuse to drink wine and zone out to some new music on my iPhone.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“I download all the Housewives series and catch up on trashy TV shows.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“My favorite in-flight guilty pleasure is simply staring out the window and taking pictures of the views. It’s my chance to do some thinking and relax.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“It’s all about Instyle, US Weekly, People, and InTouch. Need I say more!”<\/span><\/p>\n

“Relax? Not possible with a 2 year old in tow!! My only in-flight pleasure is to survive the flight with my busy toddler.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“People watching. Air travel is funny to me because people get so stressed and awkward. I love watching people when they are out of their element; trying to cram their luggage in the overhead, waiting impatiently for the bathroom, pressing the overhead button a million times, or trying to get up during taxiing. I also secretly love listening to the stories of those around me. People share the craziest information with complete strangers.”<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
