I am a travel agent, specializing in the Caribbean and Mexico. I have had many crazy flight experiences, but last year on a flight to Jamaica really takes the cake! My co-workers and I were ready for a week in paradise away from our clients and boarded our plane in Charlotte for what we thought […]

My husband is the worst air-traveler; he doesn’t follow the rules and always wears the most security-risking, time-consuming accessories and shoes. After 25 years of trying to convince him there’s a better way, he still dresses like this when flying. This flight from hell actually took place after the flight, and took place just before 9/11. […]

[Mature content] I was on a return flight from a business trip from Indianapolis to Detroit, back in 1997. It was a late evening flight and I was upset to begin with because a couple of my colleagues had turned on me at our business meeting in IN so I decided to sit apart from […]

[Mature content] Many years ago, I was on a flight from Newark to Atlanta. In the boarding area was a thirtyish, very attractive woman. And she was dressed rather skimpily. It became obvious that she was with a very old, likely wealthy man. The appearances were that of a ‘gold-digger’ situation. The flight was only […]

(#1) I flew from Phoenix to Minneapolis in coach seat B row 18. If that wasn’t bad enough, seat A and C were occupied by a husband and wife who talked non-stop. To make matters worse neither could have the arm rest down and needed seatbelt expanders, because they each weighed 350 plus. The plane […]

In 2005, I married the most beautiful woman in the world, and we were set to honeymoon in Jamaica. We got on to a flight out of Atlanta – one shot flight to Jamaica. After about 15-20 minutes when they were supposed to be giving the instructions for flotation devices, we noticed a smell, but […]

Hubby Dearest

in Couples Stories

About six years ago, I traveled with the passenger from hell. The problem was, it was my husband. We were going from New York to Sacramento, CA to visit my relatives. I should have known the trip was doomed when he forgot his insulin (hubby dearest was diabetic) and didn’t remember until we were almost […]

New York to Houston. I am sitting next to a married couple, Texans on their way home. He asks her when she got the earrings she is wearing. She proceeds to confess her affair and accuses him of neglecting her and their marriage, etc. She says that she isn’t soliciting his opinion and that she […]

On a Virgin Atlantic flight from London Gatwick to Las Vegas, I was seated next to a couple who were flying to Vegas to get married. The first hour of the nine hour flight was relatively pleasant. I was telling them about things not to miss in Vegas and they were telling me their courtship […]

In 2004 I was on a flight from Houston to Phoenix returning from a business trip. I found myself in an aisle seat near the back of the aircraft sitting next to a nervous man who had never flown before. I assured him since the weather was good and we were on a “first-world” airline […]

My husband I had just arrived at the Seattle airport after our honeymoon Alaskan cruise. The flight back to Minneapolis was supposed to depart at 11 pm, but much to my disgust the flight was delayed due to bad weather. So there we sat exhausted, in much need of sleep, with no options of catching […]
