Airports can be a fun place to be, what with all the vacation vibes and wanderlust atmosphere radiating everywhere … until you realise that the long lines, loud screaming, and constant rushing are actual contributors to the fact that airports are well, awful after all. Let’s face it, we’ve all encountered them, from the ones who show up late to the ones who cut the queues. But can we all agree that the most annoying ones are those that hog the lines because they forgot their passports?!
Don’t worry, we understand you. And to relate, we’ve prepared a list of the 10 worst kinds of people you can meet at the airport!
The unsupervised kids
Sure, they’re cute and all but it can get really annoying if they start screaming and running around and well, crying! And as if things couldn’t get any worse, their parents are nowhere in sight. Or maybe they are, but they are too busy on their phones, with their Starbucks’ drink, or something else!
The slow walkers
“Yes, go on. Cut my line and walk as slowly as you possibly can. It’s not like I have a flight to catch or anything!”
The couples
There are two types of couples at the airport. The first is when both of them are travelling. They’ll be taking pictures EVERYWHERE. Breakfast before flight? Checked! Baggage check-in? Checked! Last toilet trip before flight? Checked! However, if you want a tip on how to make light in this situation, we’ve got just the thing for you: photobomb!
The second type is the one where only one of the two is flying. They will say their goodbyes for approximately a million times before the other needs to check-in. The funny kinds are when the one that’s travelling will only be away for a week! Overly-attached, much?!
The one that’s too eager to board
He’ll ask the check-in counter for early check-in and he’ll be the first in queue for when you’re boarding. But it’s okay, he’ll only be annoying before the flight, hopefully!
The one with too much baggage
This one might have taken the “Pack me in your bag and take me with you” joke a little too seriously!
The “I don’t take no for an answer” passenger
“Listen buddy, I’m going to ask you for the last time and this time, I’m flying business class and you’re saying that I cut the queue?!”
The drunk one
This will be the one that’s hogging the airport bar at 11 am ordering his third margarita.
The businessman
The one with a strict, obviously-lack-of-sleep expression and constantly talking on the phone with a stern voice. “Give me full details of the partnership right now and be quick, I’m taking off in ten!”
The excited teenagers
Kind of like the couples but these ones come in groups. However, it’s most probably their first time travelling without parent supervision so, cut them some slack!
The one that wears too much jewelry
This one will be the one that’s hogging the security line because he / she’s wearing a redundant amount of jewelry. Like SERIOUSLY, do you really think that’s necessary?!
Can you relate?
Have you noticed (and got annoyed) at any of these examples before? Or maybe, you’re quietly denying that you’re actually one of these! Anyhow, airports are still a great place to be! I mean, you’re going to travel after all, right?
