Push Means the Ashtray Won't Work

I am a frequent flyer: I use a lot of aeroplanes and I know how to open the toilet doors. For some reason, many people get to the loo on a plane and all semblance of reason and problem solving skills escape them.

I have seen people trying to use the drinking water dispenser as a door handle. Then there are the people who explore all door furniture but leave defeated ... they go to another loo or or they go back to their seat!

Here are two hints:

The big sign on the door that says PUSH means push that door at that point and, providing the door is not locked, you will gain access!
Secondly, in the absence of a push sign there will be a HANDLE! Just depress or turn the handle ...

Finally, opening and pulling on the ashtrays that are still inexplicably built into many toilet doors will NOT get you into the loo!!
