One person said: That’s when you ask, “Can I take the photo for you instead of you reaching into my personal space?”.

A second wrote: I’m all for personal space, but I think he’s adorable taking pictures still, and that is my toxic trait. But I would for sure be discussing it.

While a third commented: I would’ve closed the shade and stared into his soul. We would’ve corrected that behavior before the descent.

Someone else said: Ur option is to speak up and say, Please don’t reach over me and lean into my space. If there’s an issue, get a flight attendant.
