The complainers on MSE have nothing on these guys...

I think the hairdressers are my favourite

Especially the last one. Why would you book a room with twin beds when your going with your partner? Weirdo, also did Thomas Cook make them do the horizontal foxtrot? Honestly. Next they will be blaming TC for there being a sell out of condoms!

I wish I could somehow write an open letter to the residents of Benidorm apologising on behalf of my country!

They must think we're all like that

Perhaps the person who wrote that prefers that they live here.

On a holiday to Egypt a few years ago we got chatting to the rep. She told us that she'd had a woman complain repeatedly that the fish in the sea weren't colourful enough and what was she going to do about it?!

Also on a holiday to Greece someone put an official complaint in to the rep that it was too hot!

A mate of mine is a paralegal at a firm that handles insurance claims for this type of thing, and she has said it's all true! One couple got a three star, all inclusive week in Turkey with flights and transfers included, balcony room etc for £280 each, and demanded a full refund because only 'local' vodka was included in the all inclusive thing, and the wife only drank Smirnoff. It 'ruined' her holiday, and the restaurant didn't serve chips often enough either.

My favourite list like this is the Quantas Mechanic log.

After every flight, pilots fill out a form called a gripe sheet, which conveys to the mechanics problems encountered with the aircraft during the flight that need repair or correction. The mechanics read and correct the problem, and then respond in writing on the lower half of the form what remedial action was taken, and the pilot reviews the gripe sheets before the next flight. Never let it be said that ground crews and engineers lack a sense of humor. Here are some actual logged maintenance complaints and problems as submitted by Qantas pilots and the solution recorded by maintenance engineers. By the way, Qantas is the only major airline that has never had an accident. (P = The problem logged by the pilot.) (S = The solution and action taken by the engineers.)

P: Left inside main tire almost needs replacement.
S: Almost replaced left inside main tire.

P: Test flight OK, except auto-land very rough.
S: Auto-land not installed on this aircraft.

P: Something loose in cockpit.
S: Something tightened in cockpit.

S: Cannot reproduce problem on ground.

P: Evidence of leak on right main landing gear.
S: Evidence removed.

P: DME volume unbelievably loud.

P: Aircraft handles funny.
S: Aircraft warned to straighten up, fly right, and be serious.
