I've seen it happen on non American flights too
I guess people are glad they didn't crash and die even though the chances of that are lottery tier

Maybe they started this trend after 911?

I was sitting next to some returning brits who i'd met at JFK and they seemed equally amused and bewildered by the clapping.

>travel by plane for the first time to the Azores
>as the plane lands, all Azoreans start claping
>years later people make fun saying it's only Americans that do it
>remain silent for years fearing that the Portugese would be shamed as well for doing it
>later travel across europe
>no one ever clapped
>realise it's an Azorean thing only
>realise it's just normal because the Azores are an American colony
>relief overcomes me

>Maybe they started this trend after 911?

No we just like to give the pilots a little good job clap.

>travel to America
>leaving the airport enter Taxi
>Pajeet's driving doesn't kill me
>pay clap and tip
>I get shot

Maybe it's like a group mentality where people only clap if enough people are already clapping

It could take a few Americans to derails a plane into americlapping

I've been on plenty of domestic U.S flights and nobody has ever clapped... am I being rused?

He doesn't get a clap or a tip unless he gets us through the gauntlet of gunfire safely.

>viting US to watch Wrestlmania, changover flight in NYC to San Fran
>get on plane
>as soon as it lifts off Americans start clapping and yelling ‘WOOO! YEAH!’ and high-fiving each other
>eventually we reach cursing altitude and the pilot turns the seatbelt light off
>Americans start clapping again while yelling ‘YEAAAH! WOOOOO!’
>the stewardess brings out the food cart
>Americans start clapping rhythmically and cheering whenever one of them gets a meal
>this goes on for 20 minutes until the stewardess puts away the food cart
>Americans start whining and want more food
>One of them suggests starting a cheer to bring back the food cart
>they start clapping rhythmically again and cheering ‘WE. WANT. FOOD. WE. WANT. FOOD.’
>the cheering grows more and more aggressive by the minute
>Americans are banging on the seats with their hands at this point
>WE WANT FOOD. GIVE US FOOD. WE WANT FOOD.
>several Americans get up from their seat and start walking towards the cabin while still clapping aggressively
>the stewardess throws the remaining peanut packs at them
>they slowly retreat, while still clapping, back to their seats
>mfw

shut up, America is the best country

What if it spreads?
I've been genuinely worried at the end of movies and at some scenes that people start just jeering, holering and claping

>singularity happens
>humans can join a hivemind
>it's just endless clapping

Oh it will spread.
Just like everything else.

Venezuelans do it too, I hate it

>watching recent capeshit in Imax (I don't like them but family thing)
>film nearing the end
>dreading the possibility of clapping and brits embarrassing themselves
>*credits roll*
>OHH SHIT HERE IT COMES...
>nobody moves, nobody gets up
>i'm totally confused
>stay still because embarrassed to be the only one to leave
>post credits scene comes up
>sudden realisation
>everyone quietly gets up and leaves

I was so relieved, fucking marvel and their horseshit post credits nonsense.

ITT: Burgers get bantered to death

>Cultural cringe, in cultural studies and social anthropology, is an internalized inferiority complex that causes people in a country to dismiss their own culture as inferior to the cultures of other countries. It is closely related to the concept of colonial mentality and is often linked with the display of anti-intellectual attitudes towards thinkers, scientists, and artists who originate from a colonial or post-colonial nation. It can also be manifested in individuals in the form of cultural alienation. In most cases, the term is pejorative, used as a means of asserting the merits of the national culture.

>The term cultural cringe is most commonly used in Australia, where it is believed by some to be a fact of Australian cultural life.[13] In Another Look at the cultural cringe,[10] the Australian academic Leonard John Hume examined the idea of cultural cringe as an oversimplification of the complexities of Australian history and culture. His controversial essay argues that "The cultural cringe ... did not exist, but it was needed, and so it was invented."

>The cultural cringe can be expressed in the almost obsessive curiosity of Australians to know what foreigners think of Australia and its culture.[14]

Sad Australians.

>alboscum
if I were an albanian I would just kill myself desu

> Alberto defending the Americans
YOU CANNOT FABRICATE THIS OBSESSION

We also clap in the plane, cuz it's such a miracle that it landed.

>the almost obsessive curiosity of Australians to know what foreigners think of Australia and its culture.

this has never happened on any flight i've been on

You've just been counter meme'd and let me explain why.
In addition to almost 7 years as a confessed meme addict, I have moderated the largest meme forum on the Internet (at over two hundred and fifty thousands subscribers) for over a year. I know my stuff. It's safe to say that I am one of the world's foremost experts on memes and in fact there is no one I can think of that has a meme resume as impressive as mine.
Now you may think me assmad but let me ask you, are you really still reading at this point? Why haven't you stopped? Is it because you are interested in what I, an Australian, have to say to you? The only reason you are reading my text right now is because I want you to. The only reason I wrote it is because I wanted to waste your time. I have that power from across the globe.
THAT is what it feels like to be memed

t. Alberto Barbosa

it's just that you don't notice it out of excitement. When you clap you are being in complete delirium

...

ugh i hate normie shit like that.
are all races of americlapistanis supposed to do it?

What the actual fuck. I live in Canada, have flown 50+ times domestic Canadian flights in my life, have also flown 10+ times in the US, and 4 times in Europe. I have never, not once in my entire life, ever had people clap for a landing. I can see it happening if the plane had to make an emergency landing, but I've never experienced one. What the actual fuck are you people talking about?

>it's a north American has an identity crisis episode

*giggles IRL*
a CANADIAN just posted
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I clap too. According to my experience about half to about everyone claps after the plane has landed. I'm one of the persons who starts clapping. It could he that sometimes when a few start others will clap too.

That's actually kinda cute.

this happened when i landed in barcelona too, all the spaniards went mental cheering and clapping

it's not just murrkans

i wanted you to have a reply. a lot of us (i assume) think that if we get no replies, nobody has read or enjoyed our post. this is not true (at least not always), so I wanted you to know that i did, infact, read your post and I enjoyed visualising your story in my mind. there is just nothing to say though, really, in reply to your post

>non-American flights

Bow does on determine this?

Nah only shitty tourists that never flew in their lives before go to the azores and clap. People only clap to touristy destinations.

It happens.

Especially when the pilot lands in shit weather and turbulence.
