It is not racism, it is not celodurism, and it is not even feeling like a superior being. I simply can't stand certain behaviors when I'm on the road. Here are the types of passengers I can't stand.

#1 Those who do not use headphones.

In this article:

    In the silence of the lounge or on the plane, maybe at night while I'm trying to sleep, I can't stand passengers who watch movies or listen to music on their cell phones, even worse those who play games without headphones. I have had a couple of times passengers playing games with their PSPs, not giving a damn about the respect of other passengers. Of course In this category are those in the lounge who talk on their cell phones as if they were walkie talkies, not giving a damn about others. Yes I know now you will say but just you talking the whole flight? of course I don't talk the whole flight and concentrate my "chatter" at the beginning/end of the flight and during the meal when the passengers are awake.

    #2 Who can't stand in line

    Check compensation

    At check-in counters, at border control, at the gate until it is time to disembark. Recently on an Air India flight from Bangkok to Delhi, I witnessed a passenger with the plane still moving and in general indifference get up, open the overhead bin, grab the trolley and stand in front of everyone. The same goes for those who, when you are in the Gardaland model queue, pass you by because they are them and everyone in the normal queue is a coXXXon.

    #3 Those who travel barefoot

    Did you get your flight cancelled, miss your connection, land late?

    You could get up to 600€ compensation per person

    Check compensation

    Yes it is a popular custom in Asia, but it is not as if this fashion has not found acolytes in the West as well. People sticking their feet between your seat and fuselage, people who rub their feet in your face doing yoga on an airplane, all the way to those who lie on the ground so I don't bother you. How not to mention those who take off their shoes and look like they have done 4 marathons Without even changing socks as well as shoes. In this category I also include those from places where burping with open jaws is a sign of appreciation for the cook, or who in the airplane cuts his nails, gives himself nail polish, spits out the seeds of I don't know what fruit with his handkerchief 50 cm from his mouth.

    #4 Who brings themselves to eat "fragrant"

    Okay, I like pepperoni too, but eating it on a plane no, you can't do that. Of course durian cannot be brought on board, but Embarking at 7 a.m. on a New York Miami with passengers munching on tacos, hamburgers with the worst things in them, down to the schiscetta brought from home that floods the plane with a smell not even in the worst kebapparo in Istanbul.

    #5 Parents who can't handle children

    You know I have traveled with my daughter from an early age, but I would never have dared to let my daughter scream all night "because she's bored." as one American in business responded to the stewardess who had spoken up for others' discomfort. Likewise those who make them run down the corridor as if they were training for the 2040 Olympics. Or that let their son take. kick the back of the front seat He is only a child anyway.

    #6 Those who don't care

    In this category we end up with Those who think the armrest is their, who want to decide whether to raise/lower the curtain even if they are sitting on the aisle, those who as soon as they go up they place the trolley in the hat rack in row 4 even though they are seated in row 48. In this category I also put drunks (nuisance), which is common in the US and Asia, which is uncommon in Europe. Those in the airport alone occupy 5 seats for them and one for each of their possessions and who cares if you have to stand.

    #7 Those who recline without looking behind

    It doesn't matter if you are still eating and have the tray on the coffee table, no one cares if you have the notebook open. I recline (forcefully) without looking at what is going on behind, because it is my divine right to do so. Fortunately, fewer and fewer economy seats recline so it is a disappearing problem.

    #8 Those who ask me to change places.

    I'm not talking about those who want to hunt down the bum, but Who "accidentally sits in row 8" instead of 18 and tells you "can we switch?" Or the ones you could sit in the middle? ending with "Sorry could you switch with my boyfriend/girlfriend."

    #9 Those who waste food in the lounge.

    I see people doing Model wedding lunch plates and leave half of them. People who "it's free anyway" and therefore I can do whatever I want.

    #10 The rude

    Those who lash out at the check-in clerk, who lash out at the stewardess for whatever reason, or who rant at other passengers. Those who sleep with their feet on seats, those who rest their feet on armchairs, bulkheads or similar seats.

    This year I am at 130 flights and I can say I have seen all these characters around the world. Of course as seen in some of my videos I gave way to the Italo American couple flying from NY to Italy, or the Hostess who wanted to travel with her friend. But I also showed all the rest of the bestiary of what I experienced between flights.
