Road rage happens on the road, while air rage happens in airport areas. The common cause of air rage is a delayed flight. The Chinese government is thinking about imposing a no-fly ban on offenders. If an air rage incident occurred on an airplane that I was on, I would try not to get involved. There were flight attendants who were ready to handle the situation.
