Airlines that lie to their customers (or maybe it was just coincidence that Easyjet had 4 planes struck by lightning within 15 minutes a couple of years ago at MUC).
150ml cans of soft drinks - too small.
Having to get the bus to the terminal when on the flight out it was OK to walk to the same stand.

Just something about "I don't like the way airlines do things. Therefore I am going to stick it to my fellow passengers." that kind of bugs.

Number two is the " rolling delay " mentioned above. The flight is delayed 20 minutes 6 times!
They tell you there is no more overhead space , so you check your bag only to find the whole over head compartment is empty! Thanks US Air !
Sick Passengers! Gawd! I know why they fly sick - because they have a non-refundable ticket. But,it affects other pax. I caught a cold/flu last month after a trip.
The boarding process. What happened to boarding the pax @ the rear of the plane first? You have someone trying to stuff a steamer trunk in the over head bin in the front while the back is empty.

I agree with that one. But it brings me to a pet peeve of mine: public announcements (such as the ones about who ought to be boarding) that are either incomprehensible or not loud enough to be heard by most passengers. Sometimes it is no wonder that people don't do what they are told, since they can't hear the instructions. Recently (in Italy) most of the passengers were, I am sure, unaware that an announcement about which rows could board had been made. I was aware of it only because I happened to be standing three feet away from the person who made the announcement. Even so, I could understand neither the English version nor the Italian version. So it was all a complete waste of time.

The deplaning process. I hate the people who block the aisle thinking it's polite to let every person in every row ahead of them saunter out before they walk forward.
Here's the rule: If you have your bags in your hand and you're in the aisle ready to deplane, and there's nobody in front of you (even if some of those people in those rows are still collecting their things), START WALKING. This frees up the aisle behind you, which allows more people to clear their rows and collect their things at the same time, which speeds up the deplaning process.

When does that ever happen though? Personally, I think people that feel the need to rush the aisle or in one instance, ask people to move out of his way so he could get farther up the aisle, are rude.

What irks me the most is when people bring their dogs on board with fake 'service dog' vest. They are easy to spot. The old lady with a LV bag with a 7 pound dog. I do not want you pet near me or anywhere close to me and don't assume I like your dog. I have a dog at home. I love dogs just not yours.
