I was on a flight from Copenhagen to Bangkok, with the flight going on to Singapore. There were 3 Germans on the flight who started drinking the moment the plane departed, and didn’t stop. No problem there, but they were sitting apart, and wanted to talk to each other. As they drank, they got more […]

[Mature content] Not too long ago I was traveling home off-duty from my job as a flight attendant from Atlanta, Georgia to Cleveland, Ohio after visiting with my fiance. This was the last flight of the night and being that I was exhausted after a busy trip; I was just looking to relax and sleep […]

I was returning to Portland from reserve duty in Guam in January 2004. Another man from my unit went with me and we ended up seated next to each other on the way over and most of the way back. At least we didn’t have to sit next to complete strangers. On the Honolulu to […]

I was flying back to Tampa from Miami and ended up across the aisle from a family (Dad, Mom, 2 kids). I knew we were in trouble when the Mom began moaning in terror before we even took off. Apparently she was deathly afraid of flying but would not take a tranquilizer and had to […]

I think this fits under the “Weird People” Category although Creepy and Scary are probably a better fit than Weird. So when I was 17 I flew down to Venezuela by myself to visit my cousins. About 30 minutes before my plane left Atlanta a man in his forties walks by me and says something […]

The following is an e-mail I received from a friend, written on her Blackberry moment by moment on a JFK-LAX flight. Poor thing. Center seat – fatty on one side, smelly on the other. Smelly: nail biting, zit squeezing, furtive nose picking. Why furtive I don’t know wen all other manner of disgusting is not. […]

Last Thanksgiving I flew from Burlington, VT to Santa Ana, CA. I used frequent flier miles and was lucky enough to end up with the final 4 1/2 hour leg of the journey in 1st class. I had thought that this would allow me lots more room than I normally would have in coach. I […]

I was on a flight from Redmond, Oregon to Phoenix Arizona, happy that I got booked in a window seat. I took my seat next to a nice older lady. We started chatting about what was in the newspaper, and discussing an article about lead in clothing. Then she completely changes the topic and tells […]

“This is one of those things, that sounds worse than it is…” Has anyone ever said that to you? Does it ever make you feel better after they’ve told you the information? Well, this is one of those stories… So I was in the USAF, and was heading home to see family from Little Rock […]

Back in the mid-1990’s, I boarded a Delta flight from Helena, Montana to Salt Lake City, pretty much the only way to get anywhere else in the world if you lived in Helena, Montana. I was going to visit my parents in Georgia. Little did I know that at the time, the Pope was visiting […]
