1 people who grab onto your headrest when walking up and down the aisle. I get you need support but I shouldnt get whiplash.
Agreed except if the plane suddenly encounters turbulence or if it's an elderly person who is truly in need to the extra support. Otherwise there's really no reason for anyone to even touch a seat walking up and down the aisle.
Also kicking the back of my seat incessantly
Grabbing the back of my headrest thereby pulling my hair out.
Flipping their hair over the headrest in front of me so it goes down the back of the seat.
And fear of RETRibution! Air rage i guess!!
Yeah, you made it clear, but you are Wrong. The tray 'does' move. I'm not over weight. It moves because it pivots, but it does move and it can be very uncomfortable. But then too most of these planes are built to pack people it for more money, they can care less on you comfort.
Then I call BS. I've flown on every major carrier in the US, and a number of global ones as well, and have never had a tray table go into my stomach when the seat in front was reclined. Lose some weight or buy a first class ticket.
We like to bring our DVD player and watch a movie if it's a long enough flight. One flight had these really loud obnoxious women chatting away with enough volume that I'm sure the whole plane heard them. It was hours of annoying banter. I gave them a bit of a dirty look after we exited the plane. They were having so much fun laughing and talking, but they could have been a little more considerate. I don't mind the kids, especially if we can connect and have some fun conversations. Some of them can be on the shy side.
Being true does not necessarily mean that a statement isn't rude as well.
Quite often, such statements are made by someone who takes great pride in being "brutally honest", but it's all too obvious that they are much more interested in being brutal than they are in being honest, and being brutal is always rude.
People recline their seats in an already cramped cabin.
People and their artarded idea of what constitutes carry-on luggage. Seriously. There are now full-sized suitcases coming on those planes. Makes me nuts.
Mostly the rudeness I have experienced, however, has been from ticket agents and flight attendants. It's like you can't even ask a question without someone getting cheezed off.
You must be quite overweight for this to have happened.
no you dont need to be overweight for this to happen and its not the person trying to eat who is at fault its tne non caring anti social idiot in front. its common curtesy not to put your seat back at drinks or meal times on planes.. On a long flight from the UK to Florida, before the plane had left the ground had found our two blankets plus two others from the overhead storage , I looked at my husband asking if they were ours.. he thought there might be more above us but no... selfish non caring moron and when we got really high in the air it was freezing... she wouldnt feel it though... it seems planes bring out the worst in some people... Another woman flying from Greece , and sitting beside us to the UK held my hand the full journey because she was so scared.. Id never met her in my life and sat like an idiot allowing it...every time my husband spoke to me she would pull me in her direction... and IM not the greatest for conversation while travelling... worst experience yet on a four hour flight.

If I was being brutal I would have used far different words to describe being overweight.
