Which of these "intolerable airline passengers" have you encountered?

Believe it or not, airplane travel is nothing new to Hong Kongers who love to explore. But if you end up seated next to an intolerable passenger on a long-haul flight, your trip mood can definitely take a hit. Expedia recently conducted a survey among Hong Kong travelers and compiled a “Top 10 Most Intolerable Airline Passengers” list — see if any of your “favorites” made the cut?

10th place: The selfish seat-arm hog

9th place: The middle seat squeezed between two sumo-sized passengers

8th place: The back-seat passenger who loves to recline

7th place: Crying, noisy, and out-of-control kids with inattentive parents

6th place: The front-seat passenger who reclines their chair the whole time

5th place: The passenger who snores as loud as thunder

4th place: The chatty neighbor who just won’t stop talking

3rd place: The neighbor emitting bad body odor or overpowering perfume

2nd place: The passenger who talks loudly and never shuts up

1st place: The back-seat passenger who keeps kicking your seat

Other intolerable behaviors include “exhibitionists” who take off their shoes and socks on the plane, couples engaging in overly affectionate behavior, and more. Even if you haven’t encountered any of these difficult passengers, this list can serve as a reference to help you avoid becoming one yourself.
