Reasonable conduct in elite spaces.
My husband and I do a lot of flying in premium cabins. We stay in 5* hotels with nice executive lounges. We use airport executive lounges because I pay cash or buy with points premium tickets. I am the only one with hotel and airline status and my husband enjoys this through me.
Just lately he's started to become vulgar and dismissive of other people whom we share the elite facilities. Last week he stated in a loud voice in an exec lounge that he has to go to the toilet to 'release last night's burger', he barked at me in another lounge because I couldn't see what he was pointing at - much to the surprise of other residents, he bounced up and down on a bench seat and stopped the people at the other end of the seat from eating.
He isn't a 4 yr old he's a grown man. I've explained how these actions aren't really acceptable now he's an adult to which his answer is he isn't going to change for anybody.
Am I over reacting or.....?

Is it possible that he suffered a minor stroke? They are a frequent cause of behavior changes that can't be explained otherwise, and they may have no other effects. If that's the case, there are treatments that can help. If the behavior changes aren't limited to hotel/airline lounges, or even if they are if they persist, it might be worth asking his physician about tests.

That behaviour isn't acceptable anywhere, it has nothing to do with 'elite spaces', it wouldn't be appropriate at McDonalds either.

This is an issue which should be addressed by their physician.
