Planes are definitely bad, but in my experience, the most inconsiderate people in the world are in Disney World. 10s of thousands of assholes that aren't aware of anyone else around them. I've been 5 or 6 times (wife loves Disney) and every time I nearly lose my shite because of some inconsiderate a-hole.

Just a tip for anyone planning a Disney trip. Don't go when the state of Texas is on spring break. You will literally contemplate suicide.

The best comparison I have to flying today is the one time I had to ride a chicken bus in Guatemala.

Yep. I don't fly a lot maybe 6 times a year, but no matter what airline, it's an awful experience, either because of delays, or the cattle call boarding processes, or the seats too close to each other and the seats ahead and behind.
It's like airlines want to make you as uncomfortable as possible.

I fly about 20 weeks a year for business. One big irritation for me is charging for inflight wifi. Huge ripoff

people who try to talk to me.

I don't really mind babies, I just usually sleep and they rarely sit in the front few rows.

After flying nearly every week for 3 years for work I could list a lot of things. Most have already been mentioned.

It generally boils down to everyone being inconsiderate and selfish assholes.

With the exception of first class, the plane should be loaded back to front

1 - People who are constantly up and down out of their seats. Asking for shite every 5 mins, going back and forth to the bathroom every 10 mins. Just sit the frick down and leave the attendants alone. There are more than likely 200 people on the plane and you are dont special

2 - The baby thing is real. I dont want to sit there and listen to your crying baby every 5 mins of the flight

3 - I truly hate it when the person in front of me leans his seat all the way back. There is little room as it is and when you lean the seat all the way back in my lap, I am going to knee the shite out of the back of your seat till you put it back up. Thank you in advance

I lean my seat back even when I don't want to, just to make sure your life will suck more.

I know this is evil but YES!

I absolutely hate that shite.

The other thing I hate is when the stranger next to you decides your shoulder is a fricking pillow!

You would eventually get tired of me kneeing the back of your seat and put it back up. I promise you that.

That and coming on a flight sick as shite.


That one pisses me off more than anything. And when they cough and sneeze without covering their fricking pie holes.

Plus, babies that cry during the entire flight. Nothing against babies, but parents should not take babies on long flights.

When we fly to Honolulu there always seems to be an inordinate amount of babies on those flights ... there is a crying baby somewhere, all the time. Notsomuch when we fly to Naples or London - but to Honolulu it has gotten ridiculous.

Poors walking through first class. They deserve a separate entrance as not to disturb me during champagne time.

I would just close my eyes and pretend I'm in one of those expensive massage chairs in some store in the mall, waiting on the mrs to finish up her shopping.

I dare someone sitting behind me to try to exit the plane before I do.

I had a woman trying to get in the elevator before we all got off the other day and I went off on her.

"Are you aware how physics works? We cannot occupy the same place. You have to wait".

Was cringeworthy

Frickin Turbulence! Also hate when the plane drops for no reason and you think it is the end. At least with a roller coaster you know when you are about to drop.
