Snoring Pax - What Would You Do?

Passengers slowly loudly in the CX lounge...aside from moving to another chair (non available), what would you do?

Move away, kick his seat, accidentally spill a drink?

Don't know. I think I have only encountered that once and I just left the lounge..

Now if its on the plane, that would be a different story.

Put on ear phones and blast music to drown out the snoring.

There's nothing much the guy can do about his snoring. But there is something you can do to react to his snoring.

I really can't stop snoring pax or crying babies from doing what they do. I pack in-ear headphones.

Invest in some good noise canceling headphones. The best investment you'll ever make.

Chuckling as i type a response. Prior to starting cpap years back, was a notoriously loud snorer. My son once slept in the tub many years back when we were sharing a room on a ride trip. I can only imagine the turmoil I created on trans-pac flights, LOL.

Then we would have snoring in stterep !

Really, snoring is a physiological condition. Short of waking up the person, nothing you can do. And bet you 10 to one they will fall asleep and snore agian.

Move, buy headphones, grin and bear it !

This topic is not really related to CX. I am closing this thread.
