<p>^Wow</p>
<p>That's the only response I can muster.</p>
<p>I'm gonna have to go with snakes.</p>
<p>I once fell asleep on some guy's shoulder, but it was purely accidental. I woke up, and I was like "...sorry," and opened up my SkyMall.</p>

I went to California last year with my family and there was this women on the plane. She was like not obese, but overweight. You could tell she was uncomfortable and after a while we began to smell something that was rather unpleasant. As we were getting off the plane it was very apparent that she had **** her pants. I was stuck right behind her as we were getting off too. That wasn't the most enjoyable experience I've had on a plane.

^ Wow</p>
<p>Yeah, I felt bad for her. But I mean honestly there are bathrooms and if you know your having a problem just stay in there. No one wants to see something like that.</p>
<p>Isle Seats.</p>
<p>"We must hear the story behind this statement!!! :]"</p>
<p>Very dirty. Dead bugs on the walls...LIVE bugs on the walls. An overall dreary-ness. And my sister and mom went in the bathroom and came right out again. I don't even want to know what it was like in there and they said it was the worst bathroom they'd ever seen. And the bugs were pretty big. </p>
<p>Airports, I find, can tell you a lot about the place they belong to. Panama's did. New York's airports say a lot about the type of place NYC is. The only airport that was completely unlike the place it was associated with was Charleston, North Carolina's. It was more military base than airport. The huge military planes were cool, though.</p>
<p>EDIT: Vancouver, Canada's airport is very pretty, so there is such a thing as a pretty airport. My family actually stayed there for two nights. They have a Fairmont with awesome beds.</p>
<p>creepy old guys who watch you when you're sleeping!!
stepping over the person sitting on the isle to use the restroom
people behind you kicking your seat
butt cramps
soreness
the stupid no liquid rule!!</p>
<p>Ms. Swan FTW!</p>
<p>Freezing and half to death and trying to sleep when all you have is a cramped seat, a thin blanket, and a sponge-sized pillow.</p>
<p>I just noticed that all of us said "isle" instead of "aisle" BAHAHAHA
And to think we're CC'ers...</p>
<p>I was flying by myself. Next to me were a pair of old ladies. I had, obviously, bought a bazillion things of candy in addition to bringing some melted/disgusting food from home. They harassed me about good eating habits and forced me to eat the disgusting food my mom had packed for me. Ugg. I couldn't wait to get off that plane.</p>
<p>And, creepy adults that try to have full conversations with kids just because you're (stuck) next to them.</p>
<p>When my mom, on a 14 hour flight to Taiwan, sleeps on the floor where your feet are. She still does it despite the fact that the person next to us does not know us, and its funny because the flight attendants can't see her.</p>
<p>^lol that seems hilarious. Does she spread out across the floor of the entire row or just scrunch up near her seat?</p>
<p>^^, HAHAHAHAHAAHAHA, Wow, if someone did that by me I would want to run away.....</p>
<p>But, here's my list
-people kicking my seat
-people who try to talk to you (unless they're good looking guys)
-people who look at you like you're crazy when you try to brush your hair/put on make up at the end of the flight
-people who snore, loudly (I usually just nudge them)
-people who put their seat so far back that you feel like they're laying on your lap</p>
<p>kids coming back from summer school/camp WHATEVER talking like they know some fancy shizz when all they really did was play ultimate frisbee all day. and SCREAMING it right in front of you.
babies screeching. i don't mind if they cry a little, it could even be adorable depending on the baby. but SCREECHING. like never shutting up screeching. they give me headaches.
people who put their seats back (not just on planes, on airport limousine/buses as well) and NEVER put them back up. not even when they're eating. i know you can't damn eat laying back so put the seat back up, god. </p>
<p>and people who spread themselves all over the aisle seat so that you can't get out to the freaking bathroom when they're sleeping.</p>
<p>all my flights have always been 12 hours or more, so i have some credibility when i say THEY NEVER STOP.</p>
<p>I HATE when people put their seats all the way back or when some 8 y/o f***ing kid is kicking my seat. In both cases I seriously want to reach over and slap the s)(!t outta them! No joke, I get sooo angry. Or yelling/screaming kids. Babies are ok cuz they just cry, but when some 5 y/o is b!tching at their mom the entire time, I once again wanna slap the s)(!t outta them. </p>
<p>confession: sometimes when I see kids act dumb I look at them angrily or try to scare them or something when their parrents aren't looking. (horrible, I know)</p>

Haha, that's not too bad, they have it coming!</p>
<p>Things I hate:</p>
<p>People who buy alcohol and then spill it on you when they get drunk
Crying kids
People who want to continuously talk to you
Flying as a UM, being forced to sit in the UM room for 3 hours
Sitting in the middle seat being two obese people
Being delayed when you already have a long layover, arriving late when you have an early connection
The Special Security Screenings for Middle Easterners and triple -checked luggage</p>
<p>Luckily I've never had any truly terrible in-flight experiences. Maybe because at least one of my flights each way is always on a regional jet, and if I'm flying alone, I always get the solo seat. Probably the most awkward time was when I was stuck in a middle seat and all three of us in the row were reading a newspaper. It made for a difficult time when you had to turn the page...</p>
<p>But yes, feeling my seat being kicked is extremely annoying!<br>
If you're the first one to sit, make sure to put the armrest down. That way, if the person next to you is a little big for their seat, you don't have anything "spilling over". Or try to get an exit row: the armrests are usually immovable on them.</p>
<p>Best things:
* Good Service
* Flying from a small airport. Nothing's better than showing up 30 minutes before your flight (with bags to check). Or if you're taking a quick hop, getting to the airport 20 minutes before scheduled departure, breezing through security, walking straight to the gate, and watching the flight leave five minutes early.</p>
<p>Domestically, Continental is the best airline.</p>
