Travellers Battle To Go The Longest In Strange New Trend [Video]

“Raw-dogging” flights has sparked mixed, often comical reactions on social media. How long do you think you could go?

We’ve covered plenty of strange travel trends here at DMARGE — from the ‘paranoid travel hacks’ people were deployed to keep hotel rooms safe to the leg-breaking seatbelt trick those with lower IQs were testing out on planes or the unethical approach to weighing your luggage — but this new ‘raw-dogging’ business might be the weirdest one of the year.

While your first thought when you heard the phrase may have had a distinctively sexual edge — and you’d be forgiven for this, given that the more common use of the phrase is right up that particular alley — in the context of travelling it apparently applies to people enduring their flights without using any in-flight entertainment.
