20 People We All Hate While Flying

Never be these people.

1. The person in security that acts like they have never flown before. Like how do you not know that you need to take your shoes off or put your items in the tubs? I guarantee you they have seen a movie or TV show showing someone going through security. Plus, there are signs everywhere telling you what to do, and not to mention the TSA officers repeating every five seconds what you need to do.

2. The people who take up all the outlets while waiting on the plane to board to charge their phone, computer, watch, and hover board. Like we all know you won't need all those devices during the flight.

3. The people that stand at the gate waiting for their gate to be called. As if standing there make them call you sooner. If you are gate three or four obviously they won't call you up for a while.

4. The person that stands and acts irritated when you are putting something in the overhead bin. Dude, we still have at least 20 minutes until we are taking off, why are you in a hurry??

5. The person in front of you that crushes your knees by reclining their seat as soon as they sit down. And the person behind you that simultaneously pushes their feet on your seat or put their tray down so there's no earthly way you can recline yourself.

6. The person that asks to switch seats so they can sit near their friend/family. Why did you not plan this out better??

7. The person beside you that does nothing but eat loud food and watch TV on their laptop loudly, as it will blast through their headphones.

8. The person that takes off their clothes...why?

9. The flight attendants that claim they ran out of a drink or food. You know how many people are going to be on the flight, why aren't you prepared??

10. The person that insists on having a conversation with you throughout the flight. Headphones or a book means don't bother me.

11. The people that designed the rows. Why are the rows so tiny, why do I not have any leg room in my seat? What is this, a plane for ants?

12. The person/kid that keeps kicking my seat. Why are you so obsessed with kicking?

13. The person that keeps using my arm rest. Just go away.

14. The person that is sick and spends the whole flight coughing and hacking away. I'm sorry you're sick but like did you really have to fly today?

15. The person sitting beside me that hasn't taken a shower in a year. Can I buy you some soap?

16. The person that for some reason keeps tossing their stuff your way through the gaps in the chairs.

17. The person that talks on the phone super loud so everyone on the plane can hear what they are saying. I'm sorry that Jeff cheated on you with your cousin's mom but can't you have this conversation in private??

18. The people that stand up in the aisle as soon as the seatbelt light goes off. Do you really think that's going to get you off the plane sooner, sit down and relax.

19. The person that insists on getting their bag from the overhead bin before you can get out of the aisle.

20. The people that clap or cheer when the plane lands... Whyyy

Despite all the issues you can have while flying and all of the annoying people you may encounter, flying is still a part of travel. There are many great things about flying as well! Like the adrenaline rush, you get when you step into an airport because that means you are going somewhere exciting!
