Are infrequent flyers ("kettles") necessarily any worse than frequent flyers (who may exhibit a DYKWIA sense of self-entitlement) in the areas of seat poaching, annoying the flight attendants, bin hogging, seat recline wars, etc.?
Frequent fliers can and do behave badly..however, bad behavior is less common than
IGNORANT behavior and causes less chaos.
For example, a DWKYIA may be an occasional occourance, but getting behind a Kettle in the security screening line who did not seaparate their toiletries, is carrying 4 bottles of water and is wearing all their jewelry through the xray machine is extremely common.
While you may get a bin hog with an FF, someone with a trundle buggy and a carryon made of Wal Mart shopping bags..with Burger King in the other hand..who is trying to settle into 11B will slow up the entire boarding process. And there usually 10 or so type kettles per flight.
