Just watched an old lady yell at the gate workers because "they changed her gate and now her plane is leaving without her." She said printed her boarding pass at home and now it wasn't right.

Then you have the people who stand up and grab their carry-on the moment the plane gets to the gate. Sit your dumb arse down.

And of course, the people who completely ignore instructions at security and hold up the line, then stand in the way to put on every piece of clothing they just took off to go through the metal detector.

Yes I'm mad that someone is on my lawn.

Put on headphones and ignore everything around you. Travel gets infinitely better.


Also, any man who travels in shorts is trashy.

Airports are shite shows today. Like bus terminals used to be.

It just amazes me these dregs of society causing all these air travel problems can regularly afford the tickets. Shits expensive.

I agree completely. Air travel is one thing that I avoid at all costs. I will drive 6 hours to avoid a 45 minute flight.

Everything you said got 10x worse in February when the cost to fly was low and stimulus money was in the pockets of people who never could afford to fly before.

It wasn’t always like this, but it’s now only about the price, and as such has gone the way of Walmart, Dollar General, etc. Expect the same clientele, because society wanted the cheapest, and so we get what comes with the cheapest.

If I see someone remove their shoes during the flight, I realize that their parents failed to raise a person who is capable of functioning in society. Straight up selfish, narcissistic trash.

I dislike people who get to their seat, then decide to rummage through their carry on that they just put in an overhead bin and block people from getting to their seats.

You gotta avoid the idiots as much as possible. Clear + TSA pre + elite status to pre board makes it tolerable.

It's really anytime you have to mingle with the rest of society. Airports, DMV, Walmart, etc. We need a Fresh Market Airport.
