  • Touching wood is good luck as long as you touch a living tree and not something made from “dead” wood such as a chair, table or desk.
  • It’s unlucky to use the words “crash” or “prank”.

During flight:

  • It’s unlucky to carry real flowers on board.
  • Keep mean spirits calm by neatly crossing the seatbelts in vacant seats.

On landing:

  • Keep your good luck going by offering a personal sacrifice – empty your pockets on the ground after you’ve landed.
