Crypto Enthusiasts Throw Plane Party, Raising Criticism

A recent crypto-themed networking event held aboard a Qatar Airways flight has sparked safety concerns after videos surfaced showing possible violations of seatbelt and smoking regulations.

The event, a 10-hour flight from Dubai to Singapore, was organized by the startup Redacted as part of their “first-ever web3 sky event,” attracting around 250 attendees who engaged in activities such as singing and dancing while the seatbelt sign was illuminated.

Qatar Airways’ safety protocols mandate that passengers remain seated with seatbelts fastened whenever the sign is on, a rule critical for preventing injuries during unexpected turbulence.

This regulation is underscored by recent incidents, such as the May Singapore Airlines flight that experienced turbulence leading to one fatality and 30 injuries.

The extent of the airline crew’s response to the situation remains unclear. Additionally, there were indications from the event’s organizer, Kumar, suggesting that smoking may have occurred on board, further raising safety concerns.

Kumar reportedly stated, “We want to ensure this is the first and last Web3 flight,” implying that the event was designed to be a unique, possibly unprecedented, spectacle.
