What I find really annoying are those people who can't seem to travel without 20 or 30 of their closest friends.
Like last week I was at the RCC in LAX when all of a sudden this huge crowd of rowdy partiers came in, bringing their own champagne and whooping it up like there was no tomorrow. I thought the club was the last bastion of peace and quiet at the airport, but NO. Cameras flashing, people hugging and kissing and laughing all the time. Disgusting.
I was so relieved when it was time to board my flight to Hawaii. Fortunately, I was in business so I could board early and escape these crazy people.....or so I thought. They were ALL on my flight. Let me tell you how truly annoying they were--I heard a couple of them actually refuse double upgrades to first because they wanted to be with their "friends". And, let me tell you, they were with their friends. They had booked the whole upper deck and treated it like their own private club. More laughter, drinking and partying--even DANCING throughout the entire flight than one would ever have believed possible.
They even brought along more friends than could fit on the upper deck so all through the flight they were running up and down the stairs laughing and carrying on like it was a Frat Party. Hard to believe but true. One FA told me that they had totally wiped out all the Jack Daniels on the plane--in all three classes. What is air flight coming too?
Can't UAL do something about these types of people????
