Kick the seat (only if you are directly behind him), ask the FA to help? Get out of your seat to shake him awake (not a good idea if you are in a window seat).

OP had no chance on this one. Lol

Yes, snoring is a form of harm: Bodily-harm-by-pressured-waves-on-internal-body-part. Are you ok if someone screams in your ear contstantly?? How about bringing a megaphone onboard. Still happy?? |
In extreme situations I always suggest the John Wesley Hardin solution.

Yes, a box of earplugs is standard in my travel bag, whether airplanes or trains.

I don't think I snore on planes, but if I do, I would be absolutely fine if the FA, or whoever is seated near me, shook me gently, woke me up and said, "You're snoring." On the other hand, if someone deliberately kicked the back of my seat (at least hard enough to wake me up), I'd probably ask the FA to tell that person that, if they do it again, I'll ask the police to meet the plane.

Always look at the bright side of the situation that he did not have a healthy helping of baked beans for his last two meals :D

If only someone would invent a device that fits in or over the ear for the purposes of preventing sound from entering...

I've never had anyone complain on a flight, I'd be ok with a nudge from another passenger or FA, but a kick from a pax behind me would result in unpleasantries. |

2. Cup his mouth with the palm of your right hand. 3. Continue to do so until he stops breathing. |
Grow a pair? Watch the paralympics and see what dealing with adversity is really like? Act like a proper businessman and prepare for the meeting the night before just in case, for example's sake, oh I dunno, let's say someone next to you on the plane snores? Ask one of your parents if you can swap seats with them? Mind you, it's brightened my morning up just a little, I do hope this runs a little longer but I doubt it! :)

Earplugs! And learn how to insert them so they really work. :)
