This photo could have been any older two people... and i would have still found it touching.
I'm happy to see that this person took the better way out and played back with the baby, thus making EVERYBODY happy. A lot of people would have ignored the child, and then been the first to complain about a screaming baby.
Money well spent. The Wi-Fi not the seat. Hopefully it was just empty.
I remember when they made me dump HALF of my jar of cactus jelly. I have to wonder just who figured out that it was the full jars of jelly that did all the damage, whereas half a jar was not much of a threat.
He drank an entire bottle of some duty free alcohol. Then he tried grabbing the women who were sitting next him screaming that we're going to crash. Finally he started chocking a guy next to him and that's when a huge crowd restrained him and tied him up. This was 2 hours into a 6 hour flight. Did I mention that he was spitting on random people on the plane!
And the man next to you was going to stab him with a pen should he have escaped!
I think I would have started laughing out loud.... glad this person got a photo of it!
Too clever! The next best thing would be if his traveling companion were named "Flight Attendant"
No they are not. Some turkeys are mean. Some dogs are mean. Some people are mean. Maybe people who don't want someone too have a therapy pet are mean. All generalities are false. (including this one).
You need to study airports. :) Bottle of water on the way between two gates: 10$. On the corner ofthe way between two gates: 8$. In the food area: 6$. At the duty free shop: 4$. At the corner of the ugliest shop: 2$. And water from the tap only reachable after running arround for minutes: free.
At least this one is wearing socks.... But man, the invasion of personal space! Why do people think this is okay?
I never clap. I just don't get it. It's like "Yay! The pilot did their job and didn't kill us all!" *clap*
Exactly. How many other professions get aplause for just doing their job?
Load More Replies...I always clap. I'm terrified of flying and the relief just bursts out when we land :D
Well depends on how harrowing the descent was. I’ve clapped after one landing. When the tarmac is so close you can taste it and the plane is still going full speed whilst the pilot’s brake is fully on and all the on board parachutes have been released in an attempt to slow plane down before we all die; as moments later the plane bites into the bitumen and subsequently every living and inanimate thing within the cabin feels both relief and terror as we ricochet forward - the seatbelt and secure overhead compartment now the Real Heroes of the Flight. So yeah! Too Right it’s OK to clap!
I've only experienced an applause once and that's when we were stuck in a foreign country for days while it's volcano interrupted, 3 flights cancelled and this one almost cancelled. We were all tired and stressed but happy to finally be back home, the whole plane erupted in an applause.
I had a flight to the Philippines way back and the passengers clapped when the plane landed. It was weird at first but when I learned about it I felt sad and happy at the same time. Most of the Filipinos are working abroad, a lot of them in Middle East and these people have not been home for years. They clap because finally after a very long time they will see their family again.
The Portuguese generally do this, which is odd seeing as when they are on the roads, no-one will show gratitude to anyone.
What makes you say that? He could be Greek, Italian, or Dominican but why from Russia?
Load More Replies...Well I actually tried NOT to clap for a few flights... but I gave up... gotta join in.
HAHAHA This is the freaking best! I would have added some vodka in that wine ;)
I don't think accepting Christ at that moment will stop you from dying. Better results later perhaps....
Too bad it wasn't followed with a tuna sandwich and something with parmesan cheese
why don't you just drink an entire bottle of soda, point your a*s at him and damn fart one in his face ?! bet he'll stop
I'm more concerned about the "notes" on his steering column!! Please tell me those aren't instructions!!!
I never had problems flying, my whole life. I started getting motion sick a couple years ago, I think it was from a medication. I didn't realize how bad flying could be. I had to grab the vomit bag. I didn't vomit, but kept apologizing profusely to the girls next to me. Add horrible as I felt, I felt horrible for then too
I wish I were there. I would have talked to him. I felt a kinship with that comment.
Never go to a beach honey, you would see people wearing no t-shirt, you would probably die.
If you put feet up there, the jacket will not only hide them , but keep them warm. Be sure to thank her.
I hate everything about the take off so refuse to look, gripping my hands together and chewing mints to distract myself. Strangely, I love watching the landings as we plummet towards the ground at hundreds of miles per hour!
Could be worse. He could judge people on their attire without knowing anything about them!
Knock on wood. I've flown nearly 1.8M miles and have not encountered these nut jobs. I would not mind seeing a panda though!!
The people taking the photos seem as annoying as the people doing dumb s**t on a plane.
I remember my experience on Kenya Airways. When I asked for my food because they skipped me they told me they did not have any food left. I had to wait until they served breakfast.
