    You have obviously never travelled with a lady with VERY specific toiletry needs.

    Then take up a disproportionate amount of space in the over head bins with your suitcase
    So it was YOU grumbling at me last week on the plane!

    Chav scum flying are bad enough, the "I'm an important business man" tools are a close second... although i think that their attitude can be explained by the fact that they aren't quite important enough to fly business class
    Are you me? Spot on post. I'd also like to add those people who are sooo important to their company that they have to check their blackberry every 10mins throughout the flight. Flipwits!

    This week, delayed in AMS and then sent to f'ing Stockholm.

    It's just arrived at the hotel now and the half full bottle of aftershave is now empty with a loose top. My clothes all smell way too metro and my toothbrush has a tangy taste.

    FFS!
    Ever thought about traveling light?

    For consistency, Stockholm is SMP and Hong Kong is HKG.
