It is reasonable (or at least easier all around) to follow the request and turn your reader off, but the request itself is definitely not reasonable. It's just one more of those stupid things that are being done for no good purpose other than cover your ass (because if something DID happen, against all probability, you would be blamed if you didn't take every possible precaution, no matter how stupid that precaution is; it's the same reason why we have police maneuevers whenever a crazy seer decides that little green men from Jupiter are about to destroy the Statue of Liberty).

Be Polite do as asked by the owners of the Aircraft, as I said before if you asked a Smoker not to Smoke in your home ....you'd expect them to comply

What would you expect them to do if you, instead, asked them to stand on their head, stick their tongue out and recite Shakespeare because it drives mice and rats away?

Why then can't you do as asked by the Airlines, after all it really is no bother Right ?

Sure it is fine. No problem with such a tiny little thing itself. The problem is, if you add thousands upon thousands such tiny little things, you end up with a result which is so insane that you would never agree with it. But since it came gradually, it's OK, right?
