(#1) The Seat-Kicker
Parents, control your kids! Whether that means a coloring book, DVD (with headphones), Benadryl, Nyquil, Tylenol PM, Xanax, Morphine, whatever... Do something! Your precious angel's spastic kicking makes everyone else angry and uncomfortable. -
(#2) The Stinker
Gross! Imagine sitting next to someone who reeks of B.O. for an entire flight. Even if it is a short haul, your appetite will be ruined by this oblivious fool. -
(#3) The Immediate Recliner
This person sets off a chain reaction that catches everyone in his or her vertical row off-guard. Once the first guy leans back, it causes both physical and psychological discomfort for the person behind him - especially if there's a drink or open laptop on their tray. -
(#4) The Gas-Passer
You're trapped. -
(#5) The Guy Oblivious to How Much Noise He's Making
We've all been there: You're patiently waiting at an airport gate, and you hear the shrill shriek of a phone ring. A few seconds later, you hear another ring, a different one, just as loud. In horror and bewilderment, you notice that the guy a few seats down is using his precious time to try out every ringer on his cell phone... Is this really happening? Are you taking crazy pills? Well, multiply this annoyance by 10,000 when you're gliding through the air in an aluminum tube with no way to escape. Hey, noisy guy: you're selfish and rude. -
(#6) The Overhead Compartment Hoarder
Ever get on a plane and see that all of the overheard bin space is taken? Even worse, have you noticed that it's usually one person shoving their belongings up top without leaving room for anyone else? The end result usually means you having to check your bag at the gate, which is really annoying. Put your coat under the seat in front of you like everyone else. -
(#7) The Sick Person
There's nothing good about traveling while sick. In fairness, this person probably feels bad enough on the inside... but knowing that you can catch that mystery ailment only makes the whole plane ride miserable. -
(#8) The Chatty Cathy
Sometimes (most of the time), you just want some peace and quiet on your flight. This traveler doesn't seem to get the hint, even when you have your eyes on your book, your headphones in your ears, and your head on your pillow. -
(#9) The Armrest Hog
The armrest can be a tricky thing to navigate in such close quarters. However, there's an unwritten code wherein the person stuck in the middle seat gets BOTH of the armrests. If you're in one of those other seats and hog that coveted real estate, then you deserve to be the object of scorn. -
(#10) The Crying Baby
People don't mind crying for a few seconds, but if it goes on for a while? You really need to do something about it, or leave the kid at home. Also, parents: a baby squealing with delight isn't much better. At that frequency, all shrieks sound the same to our ears. -
(#11) The Hair Hanger
Yes, your split-ends are way more interesting than the in-flight entertainment on the television screen. Dante Ramos shamed this long-haired traveler on Twitter in 2016.
-
(#12) The Person With The Smelly Food
Smelly food is gross anywhere. Within the controlled cabin pressure on a plane, it only compounds matters. -
(#13) The CEO with the Cell Phone
This traveler thinks he's Donald Trump and can't afford to miss his business call or else a huge deal with fall through. You can't wait til you land, buddy? Or better yet, you can't use the in-flight WiFi and conduct this emergency transaction through e-mail like the rest of the developed world? -
(#14) The Drunk
The guy that got to the airport early in order to relax before his flight with a couple of pitchers of beer and shots. -
(#15) The Nail Clipper
It's gross enough to see someone clipping their nails on the street. But in a tightly confined space? That's why there's a bathroom on-board. And that's also why you have a living room at your own home. Please do your personal grooming in private. -
(#16) The Guy Who Grabs the Seat in Front of Him When He Gets Up
It may be a kid or adult, but when someone grabs your headrest, even once, it can suddenly turn a nice nap or a leisurely sip of a drink into the worst thing ever. -
(#17) The Obnoxious Frequent Flyer
Hearing someone behave like an entitled brat because of his or her frequent flyer status - of all things - is as annoying as any other item on this list. This one gets under your skin because it's likely the frequent flyer doesn't even pay his own way - his company does. That doesn't make him more important; it makes him insufferable. -
(#18) The Large Individual
Ugh. Sitting next to this person makes you wish that the airline instituted that the two-seat rule for passengers over a certain size. Why does this guy get half your seat? -
(#19) The Person Who Didn't Get Upgraded
Dealing with annoying people on a plane is a given, but hearing someone complain about sitting in economy because they didn't get an upgrade just makes it worse for everybody sitting in economy. Oh, and it instantly makes that whiner the least popular person in a five-row radius. -
(#20) The Tiny Bladder Traveler
This is for the person who picked a window seat, drank two sodas, and now asks to "squeeze by" again. Once every few hours is fine - on a long flight - but, multiple times per hour? Unacceptable. -
(#21) The Family That HAS to Sit Next to One Another
When a family isn't smart (or proactive) enough to book their seats together, they shouldn't sit together. Sounds simple, right? Ha! Instead, expect the parents to bob and weave around the plane pleading sympathy. And frankly, no, I won't give up my window seat with legroom and move back to a middle seat so Little Tommy can be with his mommy. -
(#22) The Compulsive Leg-Bouncer
Mr. Restless Leg Syndrome will keep you awake and distracted throughout an entire flight. When he's done flipping through SkyMall at the rate of one page every 4 seconds, offer him a book or something. Maybe a sedative. It might be the only thing to get rid of this guy's twitchy anxiety. -
(#23) The Don Juan
-
(#24) The Snorer
Seeing someone doze off is fine. Great, even! Means he probably won't ask if you're traveling for business or pleasure or make you look at pictures of his kids. Hearing someone doze off? That's a different story. All of the elbow thrusts and subtle kicks likely won't make your flight any more enjoyable. -
(#25) The Constant Fidgeter
You know the guy. Needs to remove his jacket, can't decided on an in-flight movie, needs to stretch his legs, not sure where to plug in his headphones, forgot something in his carry-on, uncomfortable with the overhead fan, lights, window shades... Please, please, just go to sleep. -
(#26) The Neck Pillow
These last-minute airport-purchases don't scream comfort. Instead, they scream amateur hour, especially considering the neck pillow only makes a cosmetic, instead of orthopedic difference when traveling.
