re: What is your biggest pet peeve when flying?

The drink and snack service...it's trashy and dumb. If I want a cup of Coke or orange juice I would have bought it before I got on the hour and a half flight. How this became a thing I'll never know...is it just busy work for the attendants?
This right here. We just stood around for what seems like hours, and inundated with food and snacks everywhere?
Interrupting my damn nap whacking my shoulder with the damn drink cart. Such a horrible waste of time and money.
My solution is to have some ice chests/ containers on the jetway. Let everyone grab a sack with a peanut in it, a small drink and get the frick on the plane. Go to sleep and hurry up and get the misery over with.

Exactly. I love being 20-25 minutes from my driveway once we deboard.

people sticking small purses or back packs in the over head compartments when they can just throw those bags under their seats. No there’s no room for larger carryons you stupid frick
See, I've seen this said before, but if someone has 2 bags and only 1 fits under the seat, you're required to put it in the overhead. Are you saying people should only fly with roller bags? Because that's silly. I just so happen to be able to fit my week of stuff in a tote (under the seat) and a stuffed backpack (overhead).

No I’m saying if you only have a small purse or back pack, put that under the seat.

This, and why is it that plane farts always smell the same?
Must be the bernoulli effect or archimedes principle or some other shite like that.

I would say 95% are morons. The best travelers are business travelers. The fricking worst are rednecks and trashy families. Old people suck too because they’re so fricking slow.

I was on a flight once where a woman had a carry on that was obviously too heavy for her to handle. When she went to put it in the overhead, she dropped it and it landed squarely on the head of a guy. Liked to knock the guy out. Flight was delayed and an EMS crew came and got the guy off the plane.

How do you feel about old rednecks? Twice as bad or does it cancel?

The idiots who attempt to bum rush to the front of the plane as soon as it parks at the gate?
Was on a flight to NY once and was in the back of the plane. As soon as we landed an older black lady felt the need to get up and rush to the front of the plane. A large guy (easily 6'5", 350+) stood up without looking behind him, because its usually unnecessary. She ran into the back of him and fell on her arse, she proceeded to bitch about him for the next 20 minutes as we waited to file out. Made the process a little humorous; especially when she would itch to someone and they wouldn't side with her.

I hope he sued that stupid bitch for everything she’s worth

The best part is that 9.5/10 times you’ll be standing next to them at baggage claim, so they saved no time.

People who try to put back on all their shite as soon as it exits the TSA conveyor belt scanner, backing up the line?
The alternative being what? Leave all my shite on the conveyor belt? TSA made me take all that shite out, be annoyed at them.

I hate being priority and it not making a difference in baggage claims. LAX is the absolute worse about this. They could GAF if your bag is priority or not. Chances are if it is priority you will get it last instead of first.

As many have said- Fat people.
They overflow into my seat.
They always ask for extra food.
They struggle to breath just sitting there.
They grunt and groan loudly when they have to stand up.
I am 50% annoyed and 50% feel bad for them.

It’s like merging onto a stopped interstate. Don’t park your arse at the start of the on-ramp and wait for an opening. Move down towards the end and find a spot so more people can get on.

I’m always disgusted when they’re breathing heavy just from walking down the aisle to their seat.

I fly to Norfolk a good bit, and there are some very large (non-fatbodies) that get stuck in the middle seats. I feel bad. I'm glad we have some big ole boys in the military, they should get a bigger seat.

What pissies me off the most is after the flight, when people crowd the baggage claim belt. If they would just step back and wait to approach once they see their bag, instead of standing right next to the belt, it would be easier for everyone.

frickers who wake me up to ask if I want peanuts and a drink.
