On a flight from Boston to Florida, about a year ago, I saw definitely the weirdest thing I’ve seen happen on a plane. I wouldn’t say it was “hell” exactly, but it was a nuisance. A couple, near the back of the plane, had brought their little dog on the plane. Normal, no biggy. But, […]

When I would go visit my family in Arkansas, I sometimes flew little puddle jumpers to either Texarkana, El Dorado or Camden. The first time I fly to El Dorado, it was quite the experience. The lady sitting across the aisle from me was from Mexico and didn’t speak a word of English. It was […]

I’m so happy to find this wonderful website, Flights From Hell, stories and commentary by people who matter the least to the airline industry, the passengers. I fly to Asia on a regular basis and am still mourning the loss of Thai airways direct flight to Bangkok from New York’s JFK. It’s amazing to note […]

Twelve years ago, I was on a Varig Airlines flight from Manaus (Amazon) to Rio de Janeiro. I had been living for one year in the Amazon, working as manager of a jungle lodge, and had brought my cocker spaniel with me from Rio. So, to move back to Rio, I bought a very expensive, […]

Last year was my first time in the United States (I moved to Florida after I graduated from college), and for Christmas, I decided to go home to the Bahamas to spend the holidays with my mother. Since it is only me and my pet cat living in Florida, I thought it would be cool […]

After boarding a flight from Denver to Nashville, I noticed that the scruffy-looking couple (mid 20’s) in the row in front of me were having a hard time deciding what to do with their gym bag-sized carry-on. Their indecisiveness was getting in the way of people boarding, so they finally just sat down (switching seats […]

Twenty years ago I took a flight home from the Dominican Republic that was totally full and there was a lot of commotion as people were getting situated. After everyone was sitting and we were preparing to take off, I heard what I thought was a chicken cluck. After a minute or so it got […]
