It varies.

There are plenty of people who make a personal choice not to drink alcohol, because they don't like the effects. I suppose such a person could enjoy the flavor of wine.

I think you mean "video or it didn't happen" as two glasses with wine in front of one customer is not conclusive.

I think that's one of the grossest things I can think of anyone doing next to me short of vomiting in his food. I wonder if my need for an airsick bag in that situation would put the guy off his "wine tasting"?

Caught a couple on my recent CDG trip.

ATL-ORD
Couple in 2CD with lap child who seemed restless, but didn't bother me. What bothered me was how they decided to try to handle this. In their attempt to entertain/occupy their child, they started ripping up the Sky magazine and then left the child to do this. I guess this wouldn't particularly be that bothersome to me although it is wasteful and obnoxiously loud, but these folks decided they didn't need to clean up the giant mess they created. They left the aircraft in ORD and all the scraps right on the floor. Took all that was in me to not say, "I think you're forgetting something." I've worked in fast food and know how it is cleaning up after inconsiderate people. Aircraft cleaners aren't paid much and they shouldn't have to deal with this kind of nonsense. Oh yeah, in this image you can also observe a dirty snot rag they threw in the pile...really classy.


Then CDG-CVG
This was a little more comical to me. Dude in 1A found that this interesting pose was much more comfortable than, oh, I don't know, reclining the lie-flat seat...still trying to figure out how this was even remotely comfortable for this guy.

Since she was flying Air France, I was confused by Fiona's 1A complaint. One would assume all of the seats in La Premiere are decently comfortable, at least as compared to the bulkhead rows in Delta's new 737-900s.

Well this was a first.

Had a blatantly obvious pimp and two working girls in first class. Dude after take off crawled onto the floor and proceeded to nap the entire time. Only to be woken up at decent.

Hope I never read about a Delta pax that was assaulted for taking pics of other pax. "As he was lead from the plane in handcuffs, the pax was heard shouting he is not a perv and it was just for fellow FTers..."

NB: not implying previous poster is perv or did anything illegal.

Pimp attitude, ordering the girls around. Told them they could not eat. And since they were sitting in front of me, I could hear some tidbits as well.

A thousand thanks to everyone who posted in this thread, I've nearly pissed myself laughing. Although not on DL, I was recently on a bus in Brussels and the only empty seat was next to a disheveled, passed-out looking guy. I was almost blinded by his putrid BO, but not before I saw him dig in his nose and then inspect it, suck it off his finger, and then chew on it a couple times. ... could possibly compel someone to EAT their own nasal excrement?! Sadly it was a 40 minute bus ride to the airport so I couldn't hop off, and guess who was also on my flight!

In the USA I believe they are called boogers. In England they are sometimes called crows.

How far does the crow fly?

As far as you can flick it.
