Thought i'd start a light hearted thread away from the war in Iran. On long haul flights what are our members pet hates. Flying from the UK I mainly fly with Arabic Airlines my hate is Arabs letting there kids scream there heads off when your trying to get your head down. Another is being held up in the Aisle because some idiot has took on a hand luggage case bigger than your case you put in the hold and he farts about trying to put it in the over head storage.

Having to sit for up to 12 hours international. You watch three movies and are still only half way there. Once in a blue moon you'll have all three seats so you can lie dawn, or at least 2 to stretch out a little.

Someone who's coughing and sneezing through the whole trip, and ending up with a cold because of it. Having to wait for the "elite" to board the plane when everyone has to get on anyway, which should be the back to the front anyway.

My pet hate would be being on the same flight as fredwiggy. Unlikely as I believe we head in different directions and it would appear I would be flying a class or two above him anyway 😉

I could give him the finger as I passed him by with my priority boarding....

Agree with the OP regarding screaming kids. They should put them in the hold or make them sit outside.
