In this humorous take on the various ways you can travel like a total A$$H0le we do a little passenger shaming (and have some fun along the way). From manspreaders, to maskholes, armrest bogarters, and more, here is your beginner’s guide to traveling like a jerk (freshly updated for 2022!).

With the dramatic rise of in-flight incidents – many involving alcohol – one traveler thinks it might be time to try something novel and implement a Flying Under the Influence (FUI) program that’s modeled after the DUI – or Driving Under the Influence. You know, what? It’s not the worst idea.

We are not sure who needs this hear this today, but not wearing your mask on an airplane does not make you Rosa Parks. It just makes you a moron. You can stop now.

Someone come get the Ryanair CEO and his leadership team because they are on full tilt. While the official Ryanair Twitter account has repeatedly mocked the United Kingdom’s Primer Minister Boris Johnson, the CEO of the airline recently sat for an interview where he called for a vaccine mandate for travel and said anti-vaxxers were idiots.

An American Airlines flight attendant was recorded slapping the phone out of the hands of a father recording a dispute between his party (which included a first-grade teacher with a 7-week old baby) and the flight crew. They have subsequently booted off the flight.

Stories of anti-maskers pitching a fit on their flight and getting booted are all too common these days, but this woman was removed from her flight FOR wearing a face mask and we’ve got questions.

Dear Flight Attendants: the unruly, violent behavior exhibited on so many of our flights these days is appalling. On behalf of a better version of America, we are sorry. You. Deserve. Better.

On Saturday thousands of travelers were left stranded due to mass cancellations that rippled across Southwest Airlines’ flights. The official statement from the airline says it is due to inclement weather but one (unconfirmed) report suggests it’s because of striking flight crew that are revolting against the vaccine mandate. What gives?
