Should you clap and cheer after a successful landing of an airplane?

Clapping on the plane is primarily the domain of Poles, especially those who rarely travel by plane.

This is justified by the fact that for many people flying is not something natural. Some people approach such journeys inadequately emotionally. The feeling of losing control combined with not understanding how an airplane as a machine can take off and stay in the air causes anxiety.

After landing, they regain a sense of control combined with gratitude and relief. Clapping is a materialized expression of these emotions.

Clapping and cheering after a successful landing of the plane is not necessary or required. Whether you want to clap or cheer is a matter of personal preference. Some people believe that clapping and cheering is a gesture of appreciation for the flight crew for doing their job and ensuring a safe flight. Others believe that this is unnecessary and artificial behavior.

Clapping after a successful landing of an airplane is a culture-specific custom that may vary from region to region. In some countries it is considered a casual way of expressing appreciation for a successful flight, while in others it may be considered tactless or strange.

In the United States, clapping after an aircraft lands is common and considered a positive way to show appreciation to the crew for conducting the flight safely. A similar custom is also found in some Latin American countries and in Russia.

In Europe, clapping after a plane lands is not common and may be considered tactless. In some European countries, such as Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Scandinavia, clapping after a plane lands is not common and is not considered a normal way of expressing appreciation.

Only if others started first ;D

You should pray for that successful landing.

As the classic sings:

"And always look on the bright side of life" :) *

I think there's always a good time and a reason to be grateful for something.

I also think that it is worth appreciating people who do their job well.

A couple of hand claps might just be a nice gesture, and I don't see it as an exaggeration, but expressive cheering seems a bit over the top to me - a simple nod, a quiet, sincere "thank you" does the trick too.
