When people give me a dirty look for taking a croissant with me. I put it on my plate.It will therefore be thrown away.. Let me eat it later.

Why not stay at home if you can''t afford to purchase lunch and you have to resort to stealing it from your hotel ?

Aside from all the airport irritants that others have mentioned already, I want to add some from staying in hotels:

Those who put a towel/book/whatever on a sun bed at the crack of dawn, then don't use the sunbed all day :mad:
Those who write reviews of a hotel on TA and include things that are nothing to do with the hotel, such as 'flight was poor'

Those who take masses of food from the buffet, eat half, spread another half all over the table then walk off leaving it like a tip

Families at AI buffets who sit on separate tables - parents at one, kids on another - especially when the restaurant is really busy and you're walking around looking for an empty table

People on flights who think it's ok to throw all their rubbish on the floor and leave their seat area like a tip - this seems to be worse in Premium Cabins too.....

There may be more to come...............:rotfl:

When people on the plane stand up in the gangways waiting to offload, I saw no point in that, and sat down reading my magazine until we could offload. The same thing annoys me when on the ferry when people corrugate near the stairs, and you can't go past them, so annoying. The funny thing is about the first option is that even though I was sitting down waiting I was one of the first off.

:rotfl:yes same with me on my last flight - sat at the back, waited till the doors actually opened before getting up, and was about fourth off way ahead of those who'd been stood 10 minutes in the middle!

On a similar note a few years ago was on a flight there were maybe 10 or so "priority boarders". But there was a bus at the gate, so it just meant they were first on the bus! I was on the bus practically last so was stood right by the door, and so was on the plane first :rotfl:

People who enthusiastically prod at the seat back entertainment screen

Seat back entertainment screens that don't work unless you enthusiastically prod them.

And when you have to press the screen an inch away from where the displayed button is.

Hate it when the guy sitting next to me (and it's always a man) splays his legs out so that I'm hunched up away from him.
Note: My husband is not allowed to do this

Or crosses his calf horizontally over his thigh, so that the sole of his shoe is a milimetre away from my clothes :mad:.

(NB the "calf" mentioned is anatomical and does not refer to a pet!!! )
