I’m a frequent flyer and these are the most annoying things passengers do – and you’ve definitely done them too
A FREQUENT flyer has revealed the rudest things passengers always do when travelling – and you have most likely done them yourself.
Christina Najjar from California, often travels long-haul to see family in London and New York.
During her travels, she said she often sees holidaymakers making the same – annoying – mistakes.
The 32-year-old revealed some of the biggest bugbears on her TikTok account where she goes by the name Tinx.
She said: “Here are the things that make you a truly awful traveller.
“Let’s begin with people who are unprepared at the front of the security line. You know what’s coming.

“And yet there are still people who are fumbling around with their laptop like a child who forgot their homework.”
She also slammed people who ask if they need to take off their jacket and any “theatrical water chugging”.
Christina continued: “Next let’s discuss the gate crowders.”
She slammed those who crowded around the gate, even when the “flight number wasn’t on the board,” adding: “We’re all going to the same place.”

She finished by saying: “It always baffles me with the bins because it’s always simple – don’t be an a******.
“Put your overstuffed Away suitcase up there and your ugly. little personal item under the seat in front of you.”
She even added a follow-up video with more big mistakes, including “large backpacks hitting people when walking down the aisle” and “strangers talking to her on planes”.
She even went after “open-toed shoes,” adding: “If you think about taking off your shoes and socks on an airplane, you deserve jail.
Thousands of people on TikTok liked her videos, agreeing with her and even adding their own hates.
Someone wrote: “As a frequent traveller the bins and bags get me every time! I don’t understand how people don’t understand.”
Another said: ” I felt personally attacked by the overstuffed Away suitcase comment.”
However some thought she was too harsh – one person said: “some people have never travelled before, chill.”
