You are not entitled to anyone's attention.

Stop judging them for being different from you and having different needs and tolerances. Coercing someone into interactions they don't want can induce stress you never imagined.

People are allowed to have boundaries from you. Especially on planes.

They may already have practiced plenty in their actual daily life.

"It's so easy to practice" may apply to you, but it doesn't apply to everyone.

There are things others find easy that you couldn't make happen with decades of practice.

Stop assuming all challenges are the same for all people.

Flying isn't a social event. It might be a rare time someone gets to read w/out interruption.

That book/those earbuds may be key tools in preventing a panic attack or meltdown.

Flying is not daily life for most people. Don't assume you know their daily life & whether or not they should practice.
