thecyclist Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Dirty toilet maybe. Normal reaction when the guy before you forgot to flush. Kidding aside, another quality farang from the isle of misery.

If you want to avoid idiots avoid the busiest locations for idiots. Well established? By who? If it is so well established, there must be many studies you can pass on to me. Just one would suffice. Not so sure if that claim is particularly the case... as the average tourist needs to have money to travel and typically, people from higher socioeconomic backgrounds travel more than those from lower ones. And typically, people from higher socioeconomic backgrounds have higher IQs, for a number of reasons. Of course, that is not always the case, but it is the case on average. I'd like to know where you read or how you can possibly know that the average tourist is an idiot. That's quite the statement. Personally, I believe it is wholly inaccurate. Not that you care... but it would be nice to read claims made like this, with some sort of logical or evidentiary substance to them, rather than claims made out of whole cloth. You wouldn't want to inadvertantly find yourself self-defenestrated out and into the category which you are throwing others.... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is that there are no "flight fight" stats that you can reference, that's why you "don't need too [sic]" I don't care about your opinions. The statistics speak for themselves. Unfortunately your statistics didn't speak, in any way, for fights on flights! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flying isn't a battle of nerves. Mostly a boring experience not a nervous one. Very few planes crash. Why would you be nervous? 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravip Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 51 minutes ago, Peterphuket said: And the flight with Thai is also expensive, next time just choose another airline. But I admit, it's almost daily fights, sooner or later alcohol will probably be banned on flights. What wrong did Thai Airways do regarding this incident? Drinking while flying, or flying in an intoxicated state is not really a pleasant feeling IMHO. I don't drink while flying and avoid alcohol about 24 before a flight. If they do ban alcohol on flights, I would not miss it! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ross163103 Posted February 16 Popular Post Share Posted February 16 Banned for life from all airlines, compensation to passengers/airline for any and all delays or missed flights--and yes, including the extra fuel used. This BS has got to stop, people need to be taught how to behave out in society, obviously this guy wasn't taught much as a child. Once the bans start people will realize there are consequences to their actions and planes will be a safer and more enjoyable environment. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made several walks around the aircraft . We had a conversation and he then explained why he was on the move a lot . Big guy and armed .
