Unforgettable Airline Travel Horror Stories

The Terrible Tourists

Five minutes before takeoff, a large group of tourists boarded my flight from Thailand to Vietnam. The group yelled and screamed, hitting everyone with their bags and then discovered that there was simply not enough room in the overhead compartments. One woman started removing other people’s luggage and got into a fight with passengers.

The stewardess decided to place her luggage in a compartment for employees or something. This flight was horrible: They wouldn’t get down to sit during takeoff and were loud. She is eating a cup noodle when she begins screaming at the stewardess.

She was asked to prepare for landing, and began screaming in Cantonese. She then threw the nearly boiling cup noodles on the stewardess. The chaos was unimaginable. The authorities immediately took her into custody when we landed.
