The passenger sitting in first class had a talk with the cabin manager after being reported
The flight crew kept a close eye on the passenger for the duration of the flight, according to the posterA man's question got him reported to a head flight attendant, according to a fellow passenger.
A first-class Delta passenger flying on a redeye from Maui to Fort Lauderdale recounted a recent flight experience on Reddit, titling the post, 'In today's edition of Things NOT to ask a flight attendant…' The passenger wrote that just as cabin service was about to begin, the flyer sitting directly in front of them, in 1B, pulled one of the flight attendants aside to ask a question.
'Hey totally random question, but on my last couple flights I noticed the FAs did not block access to the galley when the pilot used the lavatory,' the 1B passenger said, according to the poster, before asking, 'Is this a new procedure for you guys?'
The flight attendant allegedly responded, 'Hmm that's news to me,' before proceeding to inform the cabin manager.
The poster claims the cabin manager approached the passenger sitting in 1B to ask him about his inquiry. The passenger responded that he 'was just curious' before laughing it off.
The cabin manager told the passenger that information was not something he was allowed to discuss with him, before the passenger in 1B responded with 'Oh excuse me, I didn't realize I wasn't able to ask questions.'

The cabin manager proceeded to inform the passenger that he is not allowed to 'answer questions related to the security of the aircraft,' according to the poster.
The passenger, seemingly not understanding, asked for the reason behind the procedure.
'Seriously? You know why. Don't you remember 9/11?' the poster claims the head flight attendant said before continuing. 'We cannot talk about that stuff. So thank you for letting us know what you observed on your prior flights.'
The scheduled flight went on as usual until the pilot got up to use the lavatory during the duration of the flight. Two flight attendants were called to the front of the aircraft to 'block the galley and one of them stared at 1B the entire time 😂' the Reddit user wrote.
'Unbelievable this guy can't understand why it might be suspicious for the passenger seated in one of the two closest possible seats to the flight deck door to ask about galley obstructions procedures,' the passenger seated behind 1B wrote.
PEOPLE reached out to Delta for comment on the incident, but did not immediately hear back.
Forum users offered their reactions to the situation in the comments.
'How much do you want to bet the feds now have an eye out for that passenger?' one user asked in the comments.
One commenter confessed something similar happened to them when they were a teenager working at a fast food chain.
'I did this once although I'm not sure if I'm on the spectrum. At my first job in fast food, I asked the manager 'what time the money truck comes to pick up all the money.' I was like 16 and genuinely curious and she just started asking why really defensively 😭'
