Flew home last night and thought of this thread. I fly relatively frequently for work and give a lot of latitude to those that don't endure the experience of the routine often, but there are still some things that crawl beneath my skin.
- When the plane arrives at the gate there are always a few that immediately propel themselves at great haste to advance in the aisle a couple of rows until people stand up. They then attempt to squeeze by without so much as an 'excuse me'. This wasn't a case of people trying to make a connecting flight. Our flight was fifteen minutes early and arrived in Orlando at 11:30 pm. Just a case of self absorbed discourteous cunts.
- I think this applies to 95% of humanity, but I'll never understand the practice of everyone huddling with their shins against the baggage carousel. If everyone would take three modest steps back there would be plenty of room for everyone to see and provide the room to step forward and claim your bag. I saw a 90lb. waif take out the kneecaps of the the three people immediately downstream while trying to extract her 100 lb. suitcase.
