The shirt over hoodie bit is weird, but I do like to go down the cabins on long flights, not to show off, but just to stretch my legs.

The new amenity kits don't look that special, which is okay... I'm not tempted to keep them like the Liberty ones.

i wasn’t impressed by the look of the chaps one (from afar), but the ladies one is nice enough. However it’s not as hardwearing as the liberty one for sure, I can’t see it doing the heavy duties in the same way

I don't think passengers should be wandering into other cabins during a flight, regardless of the class of travel. It seems a little arrogant for premium passengers to think that they can disturb economy passengers in that already-overcrowded cabin but economy passengers can't reciprocate.

I went a bit Diva yesterday in the T5 lounge and told some bloke to wake up & get his feet off a chair. It was a complete zoo with people circling looking for anything and my mini meltdown felt GREAT..

Not perhaps a direct DYKWIA moment, more just a general sense of self-importance.
But I'm currently sat in Glasgow airport BA lounge while one man shouts loudly down his phone about something related to work (tedious work at that, nothing juicy).
That was bad enough, but the other 'gentleman' near me is now shouting down his phone, but also has the other person on loudspeaker so I get to hear them talking as well.
I've had a stressful morning, so am pleased I managed to not get involved in chastising either of them.
They've both now stopped, within seconds of each other. So I guess I should be grateful I didn't make a scene!
Do You Know How Restrained I Was?
