Default 9 Tips For Dealing With Noisy Traveller

This is another article from Wysong. I like No. 8 the best. I've actually done that and it works.

I also wanted to share a story about a loud (and annoying) couple at the SFO airport. I was using the self check in things when a young couple comes over. This is how they talked to each other.

Woman: Hey, baby, I'm going to try this computer and you try the other computer, ok, baby?

Man: Ok, baby, we'll do that, baby.

Woman: Hey, baby, mine is not working.

Man: Baby, mine is working. Come over here, baby, and we'll do it here.

Woman: Good idea, baby, I'll be right over, baby.

No one likes a noisy traveler.

You know — the guy at the gate with the cell phone glued to his head, shouting details of his personal life, or the scene-maker on the airplane, or the couple trying to break an endurance record (if you know what I mean) in the hotel room next to you.

After 20 years of flying, I’ve encountered more than my fair share of obnoxious fellow travelers, and while dealing with these types can be frustrating, it can also be fun and rewarding. Come with me as we deal with the wonderful world of loudmouth travel.
