i think that unless i'm in a car on my own every traveller around me is annoying
even my own kids in the car drive me mad. on a long journey the car is full of colouring books, sweets, handbags, kids needing a pee and saying 'are we there yet dad'. the radio gets forced onto some club music channel which to me is just incomprehensible noise, my 13 year old just says 'sweet' all the time and sings out of tune to the rap crap. i'm glad we've ditched the car with rear dvd player as that was even worse. the headphones wont work so keep getting smacked against the side of my head as they are passed from kid to mum to sort out and you get all the rest i've previously mentioned.
in 3 weeks i'm going to see my adult kids in hampshire for my daughters 18th. 4 hours on a motorway on my own, no wife, no kids, no distractions. sheer bliss.
i'm not really the cranky old sod i sound

Annoying behaviors during plane ride...
I'm going on vacation today, YAY . Although I'm extremely excited to start my vacation, I'm dreading the plane ride. During one trip from West Coast to East Coast, a passenger sitting behind me kept on kicking my chair throughout the trip. If it was a kid...
All the time!
Hello ATM! There's always that one person that can't count and insists that you are sitting in their seat and after ten times telling them they are wrong, they realize that their seat is 2 rows back! WTF? Or when they call for boarding pass Zone 1 and all...
Good luck...
Hopefully you don't have an annoying passenger sitting behind you on your next trip .
Jane, won't you have a couple annoying people sitting next to you
on your left and right? LOL! Cheers, Anthony
People who blast their headphones too loud
so all u hear is an annoying buzzing noise throughout the trip. - AT
Good luck, ATM ! I am almost every day in the plane and not for fun!
From the people that put their elbows in your ribs, to the loud groups, kids that do not stop screaming, people that manage to spill their coke on your knees, people that are scared to death(poor guys) and get sick, no flight is ever quiet. The only fligh...
Thanks Patrick but we just made sure he would not do anything foolish,
in the interest of all of us. In such a small plane (Canadair) you do not even have to restraint anybody, you just sit around. but why does it always happen to me. This is why I love to hit the road....
Luc, surely you go business class :) not that people cant be annoying even there
i'm not lucky enough to fly very often, last time was my honeymoon over 7 years ago, but trains are a big problem. self important business men on mobile phones all the way from Wales to London. teenagers with mp3 players that are so loud you can hear ever...
Flying experience...
I've flown a lot in the past three years with different airlines and different classes. In the instances where I have flown "cattle class" the self induced coma works well but more importantly, I try to fly red-eyes. Most passangers are tired and families...
Everytime I fly
people around me always have gas may be its the food or ? It never fails always farting and burping, :p
Can you imagine how awful it would be
if they allowed cell phones to be used on a plane, the non-stop chatter would drive everone crazy. WiFi=yes Cellphone=no
The #1 WORST behaviour in any class is.....
bringing babies on-board. Babies are the scourge of the frequent traveller. They cry. They need bassinetts that hog the seats with best legroom. They cry. They are usually accompanied by obnoxious parents (any parent with a 3 month old is obnoxious by def...
not to mention
when time to change a number 2. the mother (usually) change them in their seat :P
MTF - I beg to differ...
I was of the same opinion until I had my son. He is now 9.5 months and he has been to three continents and 5 countries of which two were long hauls - Sydney - Hong Kong and Hong Kong -Rome. His first flight was at 2 months and his last was at 7 months. Ha...
Speaking of airplanes, anyone ever ask the person sitting next to u
if u can eat his bread roll that's sitting on his tray? (this is only after u know for sure that he's done eatting and just waiting for the trash cart to stroll by) Or ask him if he is going to eat that piece of chocolate cake? I've never done it but have...
one of the most annoying behaviors is...
One of the most annoying behaviors is when another passenger asks if you could switch seats when you're assigned to a aisle row and they are in a middle seat. More annoying is when you tell them 'NO' as politely as you can, they continue to ask if you wou...
Ahhh yes that is very annoying!!
On my way back from SIHH this year, I took a direct flight from Frankfurt to LAX so this was a LONG ride. I booked an aisle row because I do not want to be stuck in the middle during such a long flight. One guy asked if I could switch with his mother so t...
That's not cool...
I would have gone back to the old seat and beat the cr*p out of the guy . No, I'm not violent... YET, lol
I would have stabbed the guy with...
the plastic fork and tried to suffocate his mother with a bread roll. Gaz
OK, here's a good story I heard from a friend.
My friend had booked a ticket in first class from LA to NY (or maybe the other way). He was shown to his seat, which was next to a somewhat dishevelled guy with very long, greasy, scraggly hair who was apparently already sound asleep. Said neighbour didn'...
