This is not near as bad as some of the other stories but it really irritated me. I received the call on December 11 that my mother had passed away from complications of polycystic kidney disease. I had made it through two full capacity flights and my third flight from Chicago to Atlanta was on […]

I was flying from Albuquerque to Phoenix on Southwest. Now, Southwest Air has the “persons of size” policy in that if you can’t fit with the arm rest down, you need to buy another ticket, but they only charge you for that other ticket if the flight is full. I was in the B boarding […]

Story #1 Several years ago, back in my single days, my friends and I went on a trip to Thailand. Our flight out of Minneapolis was cancelled, and we were put on a connecting flight to Seattle, then Tokyo, then on to Bangkok. The flight from Tokyo to Bangkok was the one that made me […]

This story relates to a flight from Bangkok to Auckland on 16th November 2009. As a Gold Card holder, I always get excellent treatment from Thai Airways and they had already allocated me a seat in row 31, as I had requested. The flight was not overly full, so at the final pre-board area I […]

[Mature content] American Airlines, LAX to JFK Business class March, 2010 A Sunday at noon. It was so incredibly crowded even American’s priority security line was lagging, big-time. By the time we got on the plane everyone was getting a little bit cranky. I always like a window seat; particularly on long flights. When I […]

I recently flew from Charlotte, NC to Charleston, SC to visit family. I always select the aisle seat when I have the opportunity, and had done so on this flight. However when we boarded, there was a woman a few rows ahead of me in the middle seat of the exit row who was complaining […]

A very rude and obnoxious passenger was on my flight and he made it hell. My girlfriend and I were returning back to NYC from Singapore going through Heathrow a total of 20+hours, 13hours from Singapore to London. My girlfriend broke her foot while visiting my family over here, and was placed in the bulkhead […]

I have always flown on Southwest Airlines for my travel needs. So when I found out I had to fly on Delta for a business conference, I was not exactly thrilled. Aside from having to pay for my luggage (yes, even carry-ons), I never really cared for their hospitality. I was flying from Tampa, FL […]

I am a large man. I am 6’2″ tall and weigh approximately 380lbs (however, if I weighed about 280 lbs, I would look fairly normal, to illustrate my size). Anyway, I am sitting on the window aisle and we are probably about 20 minutes into a 90 minute flight. I am sitting at a window […]

My wife and I went on a Caribbean Cruise, and took a nonstop flight back home, Puerto Rico to Los Angeles, on American Airlines. On this return flight, we encountered one of the BATTIEST flight crews around. It started in the airport. First off, they neglected to do any pre-boarding. We saw this poor old […]

I was traveling alone from Atlanta to San Francisco. I don’t typically travel alone so I don’t often have to deal with sitting next to strangers on the plane, but here I am in the waiting area to board the plane and I see an obese man come over and sit down as well. I […]
