The thing that drives me crazy is when the armrest is down and the person sitting next to me uses the armrest and lets his (it's always a man) elbow hang off the armrest into my space.
I think I'm being pretty generous allowing my seat mate full use of the armrest, but I'm not going to allow them to invade my limited space w/ their elbow! I complained about this once to my husband (who flies all the time for business) and he looked at me like I had two heads. I told him it was because men don't do that to other men. They only do it to women because they think they can get away with it. I always "accidentally" bump their elbow. It works every time. I know it's passive aggressive, but it works without having to confront the person sitting next to me.

Nope most miserable group of people I've ever encountered. Made me appreciate coach all that much more! DH worked for a now defunct airline when we were first married and loved to upgrade to first class. My one and only experience with it had me longing to go back to coach! Is the now defunct airline begin with the letter T?? Cause I worked for that airline

Ha I bet we all have our share of WTH airline stories. Worst flight I ever had was flying back home 1st class. You'd think 1st class would make for happier fellow passengers right? Nope most miserable group of people I've ever encountered. Made me appreciate coach all that much more! We travel a lot, and almost always first class. Let me tell you, I'm the happiest person on the planet. I've never seen a miserable person in FC. SaveSaveI fly well over 100,000 miles a year and am most often in FC. Being in FC does make long flights much more bearable, but I recognize you really don't get there unless you fly a lot or pay a lot. I've seen a few miserable people in FC. One memoriable story: a man seated in 1C had an absolute fit that he was asked to move to 1A. He utterly refused, and threw a big tantrum. Then he got on his cell phone and told his friend that he is having his usual "first class" problems, that people are idiots, etc. I turned to the guy sitting next to me and I said, "Ya know, if you're in FC, you don't have plane problems. The guy back in 27B, he has plane problems." And then we laughed. I can't stand douchey, entitled passengers. UGHHHH. Save

Sometimes they not only hog the arm rest, but also spread their legs out so they're in my leg/foot space. Save
