Why are There Ash Trays in a Place?
Although smoking is prohibited within airplanes, many people are still perplexed why planes have ashtrays if there isn’t a requirement for them. The reality is that, even though smoking is not permitted, some passengers continue to smoke on the plane despite this rule.
When such people are discovered, the flight attendants must stop them and extinguish the flames with an ashtray (since this is a safe way to get rid of it without causing damage). This question emphasizes the importance of avoiding smoking when traveling by air.
