1. They should include anyone wearing too much fragrance.
They should make them by eight seats, so there's a buffer zone around them.

12. people with too much/too big carry on luggage
That won't fit in the overhead no matter how much they try to squeeze it in. And back up everyone else behind them as they try

People who try to peddle their religion on their fellow passengers should be expelled mid-flight

6. I second the fragrance tax, and let's charge more for people who can't sit
#@(&%$^ still.

And those who listen to their headphones loud enough for me to hear it.

Let's also charge extra for those who can't be bothered to bathe, or wear decent clothing on flights. Tackily dressed people should be charged more.

In fact, I'd be willing to pay more for flights if the price of all tickets went up, just to help insure that the tacky can't fly any more and flights can go back to being comfortable, relaxing endeavors without so many idiots, creeps, and others who don't know how to behave in polite society.

7. A lot of the "tacky" people pay a lot to look that way
Personally, I can't afford to look as tacky as most people around me...

8. Nah,expensive tacjy I can deal with
The true tacky, from the people who don't think it's tacky but think it's totally appropriate - those are the ones I don't appreciate. The ones whose clothing is tacky, plus their attitudes, their style of speech, their eating style, their child-raising styles, their "artistic" taste, their hair styles, their eyeglasses, etc., are all tacky.

9. I'm with you... here's my idea of perfect flying:
Something like this, except with some high-tech whisperjets instead of props...


With people like this:


and with the Royal Jordanian Air "sleeper seat"

13. How about an older lady in her apparent 60's wearing skin-tight
pink sweatpants, and little gold slipper/shoes.

I STILL wish I'd never seen that.
