It’s that time of year to pack your sunscreen and bathing suit and set out for a vacation. Got to get that time in before the kids go back to school, right? To get to some of those remote destinations, however, sometimes requires a plane ride or two (or three) and going through border control of various countries. This can bring on a whole new level of headache; as shown by this Reddit thread, not all flights are over as quickly as we would like them to be. So read on if you want some inspiration to help you appreciate your next plane ride–or if want to be put off from flying forever!
1. How to Make Your Flight Attendant Cry
At least this writer probably can’t remember this moment and only heard about it. Still, big oof. I don’t envy the poor flight attendant; she must have felt horrible. Even as an accident, no one wants to be responsible for a baby being hurt and potentially scarred.
On the positive side, the scar only lasted for a year, and it seems this Redditor made a full recovery. Being a flight attendant seems like one of the most stressful jobs you could have, given the kind of things they have to deal with. Imagine being up in the air with no access to help of any kind until landing; it’s completely their responsibility.
