Yeah, whatever.

I was on a QF A380 flight LAX-SYD with a loud snorer and I just shrugged it off. I don't realistically expect someone to stay awake for an entire 15 hour flight. People have anatomical problems they can't help, I'm not as selfish or as pompous as to think that I can control someone else's behavior.

People, air travel sucks and we're all in it together. A little compassion and understanding goes a long way when you're packed into a metal tube with 300+ other pax - try not to be indignant, miserable human beings.

you're on public transportation; deal with it.
Indeed.
