Gross things people do on flights

[JohnK]

Unbelievable!

Can't say that I have ever experienced anything like it on any of my flights.

Whilst on my first trip overseas, and by myself at 19, I had a prized window seat to view every aspect of my first flight. Beside me was an elderly gent going 'home' to England for a visit.

He was very drunk and kept falling asleep on my shoulder, then awoke abruptly to throw up in a bag and then proceeded to pass out asleep on my shoulder again and again. It somewhat damped my first flight overseas (26 hours of it!). I was 19 and didn't even think to complain - it was difficult squeezing past him to go to the loo though.

I had sex in the toilet on a flight from Sydney to Singapore and went back to my seat with my partner. As we were about to land in Singapore the Purser on the BA flight announced to the entire plane that he was welcoming me and my partner - ( 'passengers in seats 25 c and d') to the mile high club The poms know how to do it well...

Okie dokie mate. First post and that's what you come out with?
I'm not going into detail what l've done while "up in the air", there is no way l'm putting it on a public forum, that's for sure.

Yes you poms are rather civilised for going to the toilet. The German couple in the row in front of SWMBO just went for it in there seat while flying FRA-SIN. At least they pulled a blanket over themselves and most others were asleep. But SWMBO did manage to provide a rather vivid description of events.

Only a description, I thought at very least a mobile phone video clip should be provided.

Maybe not gross but on my PER-MEL flight the other day the female pax next to me, when I said hello on sitting down opened with "Another day another f&*king flight to s&*ty Melbourne". I was a little shocked at the language.

with an opening quote like that, I'd be buying her a few drinks and get some entertainment on the flight, sounds like she has some frustrations she wants to let out! Hearing a complete stranger cough and moan about nothing that concerns me is better than reality TV...harmless fun up in the air.

And the language, just look at society, I'm not a prude so it doesn't bother me at all.

 

[djfuzz]

I agree Brisbane Flyer - I'm not a chatter on flights on my own, but with an opening like that I'd have to be really tired not to let curiosity get the better of me and indulge them a little.

As for the language, I also don't mind but I can imagine some would. Then again, as I'm sure ejb would agree, if our dear leader uses it, it should be okay right?

It was not the language that worried me but the use of that in the opening hello shocked me, and as you say if Chairman Rudd can use it it must be acceptable.

I quickly put on the headphones and settled in to watch "Up in the Air" again. As it was J she did manage to throw a few wines down and near landing once the headphones were off she did start up again about Melbourne and the troubles in her life.

we're slow technolog adopters only had nokia 3110s back then so no video.

We were in the middle 4 seats on the aisles, so i could see the seat in front of her flexing a bit. :shock:

In J with AY from Hong Kong to Helsinki I sat next to a guy with a cold who snorted like a camel the whole distance...I could hear the muck hitting his tonsils!! Not even noise-cancelling headphones could block the vibrations of his adenoids out!

On the way back, a guy who was snoring like a train at the back of the J cabin even before the flight had taken off. People in the front row were turning around to see what all the commotion was about!

Snoring is not gross, it can be annoying but comparing snoring with sitting next to a drunk who vomits is not a fair comparison.

Loving this thread,wish I had something to contribute but all my flights have been mundane :?

 

[whereishome]

Sat next to a guy in Y, SYD-CBR who had noxious gas. Even to the point of leaning to the side (as much as a hefty bugger like him could) to get clearance from the seat that was stifling his release.

Thankfully the plane was about 2/3 empty so I got up and politely asked the FA if i could move to another seat as my neighbour had a "condition" that made sitting next to him uncomfortable.

Don't mind giving up my exit row if there's an entire row free to sprawl out in and spread my legs.

I was on an AA flight, but can't remember the actual route. I was in the second row of F (which is a term loosly used on AA domestic flights). Anyway the washroom was being used by a young lady, and another young lady was standing there waiting, talking to the FA. Then this old guy comes shuffling/running to the front, and starts banging on the door to the toilet and saying hurry up, and aksed the waiting pax if he could go first as it was an emergency. The FA advised that there were toilets down the back, but he said there was a longer line and he wouldn't make it, and something about a colostomy bag. He then started hammering on the door, and eventually the girl came out, and looked at him bewildered and walked back to her seat. After the old guy had been in there a short time, this horrible smell started to drift through the cabin, the door to the toilet opens and the FA goes "OH MY GOD" and sends the waiting px to the back toilets. Cutting the novel short, the colostomy bag contents are now all over the washroom and the old bloke, his wife is called, plastic bags are collected to put his clothes in, he is being cleaned up by his wife, he is given blankets to wear back to his seat, the door is taped shut, and Reggie's airvent is on full and pointed directly at his face. Glad I wasn't in row 1.

I heard the reply to another pax question as we were deboarding that a hazmat team had been called prior to landing to clean the washroom

Reggie you win. That is the most horific story I have ever heard.:shock:
