Yeah, I'm talking to you, too, Pal

Message: . . . You get out of your seat before the plane has reached the gate, snatch your enormous carry-on bag from the bin above MY seat, and you bolt to the front so that you can be the first off the plane, drawing a stern rebuke from the flight attendant

Hey

If you reach into my tray and grab my sugar, saying "you're not going to use this, are you?"

If you don't flush the toilet in the lavatory;take all the magazines so nobody else has a choice;throw your garbage(gum wrappers,dirty kleenex on the floor,etc.);let your kids run up and down the aisle without supervision;bring on everything from your car/van's dashboard as carryon to glass jug flower arrangements;expect that you IV can be attached above you to the oxygen compartment;smoke in the lavatory when we already have told you 3 times not to;use your cellphone or computer when you are not supposed to;stack all the stuff on your meal tray to "help" me not realizing that it must be flat in order to pick it up and put it in the cart.........and the number one thing to show that you are not a well-mannered passenger? <BR>YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE ON THE FLIGHT SO AS MUCH AS YOU THINK YOU ARE SPECIAL-THERE ARE ANOTHER 178 PEOPLE WHO THINK THEY ARE TO !!!!!!!!!!Thank you for the chance to vent-I have others but I will keep them to myself?

Leone: No comment on this thread? <BR> <BR>Why is that? Only acceptable on the European forum? <BR> <BR>Caio!

My two biggest complaints. You wear so much perfume or aftershave, I have to ask for another seat. You must work on your laptop/notebook computer with both elbows extending into the passengers on either side. You are sooooo importnat, that you continue to talk (loudly) on your cell phone until the flight attendant gives youa final warning upon take off. Then, when we land - the cell phone exercises commence again.

whoee

You are an inconsiderate pig that drags on three bags and uses up all the storage bins for several rows in both directions of your seat; you slam your seat back into full recline position without checking to see it might bother the one behind you; you are a big obese fatty that overflows your seat; you fart a lot after eating; you want to talk all the time even when it is obvious I am not interested and just want to read my book; you get sloppy drunk on those little bottles of booze; you have kids that you allow to kick kick kick the seat back in front of them and you never make them stop; you are in row 33 yet you jump up and block the entry way when boarding is called for rows 1-10 (sit on your fat ass and wait till your row is called idiot)....

You are sitting in front of me and you push your seat back into my knees that are already pressed against the seat and you don't ask me before you do it.

thats

When I purchase a ticket, that gives me the right to recline my seat all the way down if I choose to do so. The person in front of me is doing the same thing to me, and you are doing the same thing to the person behind you. I am not going to fly in the upward position for 12 hours, and get a very bad back pain just to please you. <BR>I do not like it when the person in front of me reclines his or her seat all the way down either, but I do not blame that person, or feel angry. I do not consider those people inconsiderate, they are just trying to get comfortable <BR> <BR>If anything it is the airline's fault. Airlines are trying to make money and cramp more seats than the capacity of plane allows so they can carry more people like cattle.

You Are Not A Well-Mannered Airline Passenger If . . . <BR> <BR>... you have ever caused an international incident. <BR>... airlines offer you bonuses to NOT fly frequently. <BR>... the FAA has added your name to a list of the most frequent causes for delayed flights. <BR>... your idea of the mile high club requires funny cigarettes and disconnecting the toilet smoke-detector. <BR>... pilot unions refer to you by name when negotiating "hazardous-duty" pay. <BR>... the Chinese government has ever redefined its definition of international airspace just to keep you further from its borders. <BR>... your idea of a "turbulent flight" is one with a two-drink maximum.

Message: thats <BR> <BR>fine, recline your seat all you want, but please have the consideration to return to the upright position when the meal is served. I am tired of my boobs in the salad dressing! <BR> <BR>That said ..people that have to jump up, open the overheads, and take something out of their carryon , about every 15 minutes, especially when the bin is over my head.

[email protected]

If you continue to shuffle a deck of cards over & over especially on a late night flight! Urrrrgh. <BR>And...last flight I was on someone was clipping nails w/ clippers.I just hope it was finger nails! <BR>And people who loudly complain about the food,...what did they expect? Keep obnoxious loud comments to yourself please.

If you're in bulkhead and you let your kid bang the tray that resides in the seat arm all night.

Jody, <BR><I>"T..people that have to jump up, open the overheads, and take something out of their carryon , about every 15 minutes, especially when the bin is over my head. "</I> <BR> <BR>There are window seats that don't have that problem, you know...

JOdy

YS- I know there are window seats that's where my husband sits! <BR>what can people possibly need every 15 minutes?? GET ORGANIZED and stop waking people up all night!

Beachbum

Jody, <BR>Remember the old days, when they designated "smoking" and "non-smoking"? Maybe on any flight that starts after, oh, 8 p.m., and lasts longer than, oh, 6 hours, have "sleeping" and "non-sleeping" sections? At the very least, if you are determined to be awake, you should have the aisle seats! I think on my next long flight, before takeoff, I'm questioning my rowmates on their intentions, then we're playing musical seats if sleepers and non-sleepers are mingled!!!

YS

Jody, that's how those people keep themselves enterteined... I don't like it also. <BR> <BR>I've seen noice-cancelling headphones in the stores, and tried some of them on - very interesting, you actually hear less background noice, even if they are not plugged in into the CD player or whatever. Did anyone tried them?

anonpax

to the top-but don't take off yours,please!

You are not a well mannered airline passenger if: you are joing the mile high club with a flight attendent while she is supposed to be serving meals and/or drinks to other passengers. <BR>

You are an inconsiderate, rude, nasty, evil, twisted and disgusting air traveller when you: <BR> <BR>*allow your bratty kids to run up and down the aisles, kick the back of seats, yell/scream/cry/holler/complain and in general make life completely damn miserable for those around you while smiling and responding "they're just kids" to the point where other passengers want to throw you AND the brats out the window feet first <BR> <BR>*you decide that you have this insatiable need to drink heavily and barf on my shoes <BR> <BR>*you sit there and talk about what a frequent traveller you are and then reveal that you are the biggest liar when you don't even know what kind of airliner you are on <BR> <BR>*you laugh out loud at the movie and food comes spitting out of your mouth <BR> <BR>*you change your baby's diaper and stick it in the seat pocket rather than getting off your lazy butt to put it in the trash in the lavatory <BR> <BR>*you gripe and moan that you can't get an upgrade to first class when you are not even a frequent flyer <BR> <BR>*two words: kid's pictures---UGH! <BR> <BR>**And my special pet peeve: <BR>**Idiot mommies and duh-ddies who think that every little annoying thing their brat (or brats) does (or do) and then get militantly upset when other passengers insist on having a pleasant flight--well how dare they say these people...AAARGH!
