'I thought he was joking': 30-year-old man demands to pick his friend's wife up from the gym instead of getting his girlfriend from the airport, internet insists he's cheating

This traveler is coming to the realization that her relationship with her BF might not be on the up and up. Sometimes it takes a particularly honest person to set you on the right path. It can be a close friend, a parent, or a therapist. But for some people the moment they see the truth can be through a ton of strangers on the internet all telling you what's right in front of your eyes. Next, this person is “charging my 16-year-old nephew rent” by taking 10% of his salary, which quickly ignited…

'What is up with these lunatics?': Male Karen boomer throws fit when injured younger passenger gets to board flight early, gate agent comes to younger guy's defense

'What is up with these lunatics?': Male Karen boomer throws fit when injured younger passenger gets to board flight early, gate agent comes to younger guy's defense

No one enjoys waiting to board a plane when you're in one of the later groups. That being said, finding a scapegoat to externalize your frustration is not going to make your situation any better. Take it from someone who is almost always in boarding groups 7 through 9. This Redditor may have been young, but he had a doctor's note that gave him early boarding access because he was in recovery from a recent knee surgery, which led some folks to wonder why he was even on a flight in the first plac…

'Fine. Cancel the trip. The whole thing': Entitled Karen denied early boarding on flight, threatens to cancel the trip, gate agent maliciously complies

Boarding a flight can feel like an interminable process, especially if you have found yourself in the final boarding group. Sometimes, you try to position yourself at the gate so that you'll be the first person in line when your group is finally called, but people end up thinking you're already in line and you have to step aside because you are not, in fact, worthy enough of being in Groups 1 through 4. Here, we have an entitled Karen passenger who insisted on being bumped up to an earlier boar…

‘They held up an entire flight’: Entitled family causes massive line at airport as they demand to check in 16 bags, leading to a dispute when the flight gets delayed

‘They held up an entire flight’: Entitled family causes massive line at airport as they demand to check in 16 bags, leading to a dispute when the flight gets delayed

As much as we all look forward to getting on a plane and going on vacation, no one likes the first part of the journey to their destination—the airport lines. Not one person enjoys arriving at the airport two hours (at least) before their flight and moving from one line to another until they actually board their flight. It is even more annoying when there is some holdup and you end up standing in one line forever, which is what happened to the passenger in this story. They had to wait for aroun…

Entitled Male Karen pays for second seat on airplane for extra space, demands refunds when he learns the plane is mostly empty

Airlines have never exactly been the most transparent. Unfortunately for this passenger, he came to understand this fact far too late. He arrived at the airport and demanded a second seat because he insisted that he needed the extra room. The airline employee tried to explain that this wouldn't be necessary and that he would have plenty of room on the flight, but the impatient and entitled male Karen customer insisted that he needed the extra seat. Little did he know, when the lady at the airli…

'Oh okay. Good luck with that, bud': Waiter calls out "we have somewhere to be in an hour" diners

Oh, you have to be at the airport in 90 minutes, but you have time for a sit-down meal at a restaurant? Tell me more. Tell me why you think that's a good choice. International flights can cause long lines to get through security---these notoriously take ages to get through. Oh, you're only 25 minutes from the airport? I'm sure there will be no traffic, red lights, or slow drivers to stop you from getting on your flight. Truly, if you decide to have a sit-down meal outside the airport when you h…

When it rains, it pours, as a few ill-fated travelers know all too well. Sometimes you can do literally everything right while en route to your destination , and things will still go wrong. One dude found that out when they left early for the airpor t. First, they got stalled by a train that decided to park on the tracks for a full hour! That was followed up by a comedy of errors, leading to them missing their flight. There was just no way to get around that train, and how could they have ever…

Who doesn't love a good instant karma story? Especially when it's a couple of entitled people who have no concern for others around them. A pair of Karen's, if you will. This entitled couple was waiting in line for airport security. According to the Original Poster (OP), the line wasn't too long, but there was only one employee checking every single person, causing the line to go dreadfully slow. Unfortunately for the OP, he was standing in front of the entitled couple. Every time the line mo...

'I'm running late': Impatient Karen traveler gets called out for shoving passengers on TSA line

Airport security lines are not built for the entitled and the impatient, yet somehow, these folks still choose to travel all the time. Of course, this means that the rest of us have to inevitably suffer as a result. Look, the reality is no one wants to be waiting in the security line (if you enjoy waiting in line, then there is something wrong with you), but when you're waiting in line with a Karen, the experience becomes so much more painful. Now, let this serve as a PSA to the Karens of the w…

20+ ridiculous airport greeting signs: 'The dogs missed you so much. They ate our couch. Welcome home!'

20+ ridiculous airport greeting signs: 'The dogs missed you so much. They ate our couch. Welcome home!'

It's easy to miss the most bizarre behavior at the airport if you're not looking carefully enough. Perhaps you're too focused on making your flight in time that you don't notice some random lady fully doing yoga poses at the gate like she's in a class or something. Alternatively, perhaps you just landed and you're so exhausted that you just want to focus on getting out of there as soon as possible. If that's the case, you might miss all the greeting signs from friends, family, and car service d…

Business changes expense policies, loyal employee gets to take cabs everywhere: 'The company just had to pay double'

Traveling for work is a way of life in many careers. Jobs often tell you this when you apply for the role, specifying what percentage of the time you'll be on the road. For many workers, this setup is a great way to see a little bit of the world, or just keep them from getting bored of their hometown. This person, u/Bibby_M, has a great setup with their job. Though they live about 38 miles from their job, they only live about 5 miles from the nearest airport. That means that even though they tr…

This is your captain speaking… get out of that seat! Working as an airline pilot does have that fun perk: the pilot gets to say, “This is your captain speaking,” and then they tell you about the weather and how long it'll take to get to your destination.

'For the first time... he had nothing to say': Entitled passenger whines for an entire flight, gets confronted by fed-up passenger

Look, none of us wants to be at the airport , but if we have to be there, we may as well try to relax. You already know you might be delayed for four hours, so bring a book. If you don't want to be bored in the long TSA line snaking around the building, best to bring a podcast or some good music. U/traveler-veil did just that when they were traveling , and it helped them a little bit. It would've been a more effective distraction if someone could manage to shut their yapper for more than five s…
