Air passengers in Turkiye who unbuckle their seatbelts and step out into the aisle too early after a plane lands now face fines under new regulation issued by the country’s aviation authority.

The new law, which came into effect at the beginning of May, is an effort to clamp down on passengers trying to beat the queues to get off the plane by unbuckling, grabbing their bags and making for the exit before the captain turns off the seat belt sign.
