Planes are becoming better and flying is somewhat becoming cheaper but the level of discomfort are growing day by day. Agreed, that the airline business is a whole lot more than what it seems to be but then again, it really doesn't have to be as annoying and irritable as it is becoming day by day; a little because of the airline companies and quite a lot because of the other passengers.
Top things that the airlines do that makes air travel annoying:*
Exorbitant fee for flight change: If you actually think about it, for an airline to switch a person to a flight that's comparatively empty, especially when the person wants to shift to a prior flight, is a thing that can benefit them. It gives the airline a chance to sell the same ticket at a better price if there is some last minute requirement; and looking at people's travel schedules these days, such last minute ticket purchases must be happening more often than not. Agreed, there must be a charge but do they really need to charge the customer a magnanimous amount for changing?

Leaving the passengers in utter confusion and chaos, especially while they are waiting to board: Most of the times the airlines love to behave all secretive and mysterious with their customers. There are n- number of times when a customer is made to wait and has to keep lingering on in the waiting area while being all set to board for hours together. And after waiting for about 30 minutes there comes a personnel explaining that there would be a short delay. Why such secrecy?Why can't the customers be informed timely? And we all continue to wonder!
*
Poor entertainment choices: Most often airlines offer entertainment packages with moviesand music;but then why do they have to pick worse possible movies in these packages? It's tried, tested and proved that most of these flights would choose the worse possible sitcoms and movies. And to add on to it, there would be numerous advertisements in between, leaving customers with no choice but to be a captive to these commercials.
Top things that co-passengers do that makes air travel annoying:*
Babies crying: This is by far the worst possible thing that can happen to anyone on a flight, especially if it's a long duration flight. Of course, no one has control over what babies do but why can't the parents be a little considerate about the co - passengers and keep the babies happy? Or maybe just carry things that they love?
*
The compulsive leg shaker neighbour: More often than not one finds a co - passenger who has the annoying habit of continuous leg shaking. To all those who do this, please! it's annoying and uncomfortable for the person sitting next to you. So, do try and make an effort to not do it.
*
The passengers who stand up even before the plane has finished taxiing: Guess such passengers forget that they won't be let out until the plane gets to a halt and also no one would be left behind in the plane for sure. Relax! A queue after the plane has stopped would help everyone get out much faster!
As airline travel becomes easier and more convenient, it would be great if these annoyances could be controlled. Because though the travel is great but all these emotional wear and tear; such a drag!
