Why do people play videos out loud at the airport now?

Sitting at my gate today and the woman next to me was scrolling TikTok with the volume on full blast. No headphones, nothing. I politely asked if she could use headphones and she responded with “it’s a free country.” This is the third time in the past week I’ve seen people doing...

Bag check agent tried to stop me from rescheduling my flight

Had a frustrating experience with Frontier this morning. My flight was at 5:50am and I got to the airport around 4:50am because it took forever to get a Lyft/Uber. I understand that was on me. They wouldn’t accept my checked bag anymore and it was too big to convert to a carry...

“Get here 3 hours early” … cool, where’s the gate agent?

Show up 3 hours before departure like a responsible adult. Gate area? Empty. No agent. No announcements. Just all of us sitting there staring at the counter like it’s going to magically staff itself. Love how the burden is always on passengers to be early, but somehow that...

FRA B02 to B09 Schengen gates feel like a different airport

Usually I connect through A at Frankfurt and it’s easy. Lounge, coffee, bathroom, straight to the next gate. This time my connection was B03. Thought it was a typo at first. Went from A34 down the stairs, through the tunnel, waited forever for the elevator back up, and ended up...

Colorado airport staff acting like I can’t tell time

Got to the airport about 3.5 hours before my flight. Tried to check my bag and the kiosk wouldn’t let me because apparently you can’t check bags until 4 hours before departure. Yes. My flight was in 3 hours. Boarding pass randomly disappeared from the app, had to re check in,...
