Catching a flight is never plane plain sailing.

While most passengers are on this best behaviour (due to being enclosed in a small space with complete strangers), there's always the few who will kick your seat for the entire journey, scream at their kids, or get rip-roaring drunk.

However, a recent incident on a plane has divided people on social media.

Instagram account Passenger Shaming shared a photo of a passenger drying their wet swimsuits and bikinis by hanging them over the headrests of seats.

The account captioned the post: "PRO TRAVEL TIP: If you have a wet bathing suit, or three - AIRPLANE HEADREST DRYER."

The passenger's behaviour has split commenters.

One person wrote: "Lovely, is that the smell of the ocean or chlorine and piss?"

Another said: "Oh just great, damp clothing on cloth seats..idiots!"

Other comments included:

"Hanging wet clothing on dry, fabric seats sounds like pink eye waiting to happen."

"There’s a thing called a large Ziplock baggie and it miraculously holds wet bathing suits in your luggage!!! Imagine that."

However, not everyone had an issue with the unusual drying method.

One person posted: "It’s a pretty empty flight. Looks like no one sitting in the row being used for laundry."

And another said:  "Some good tips here."
