After reading into the alcohol thing on planes it got me thinking about what people find acceptable. I certainly wouldn't entertain an overly loud bunch of idiots on a plane.
My worst was in 2007. First time abroad since a teenager to Cuba. On the flight there was a lad drunk, loud, obnoxious, staff had tell him keep it down as receiving complaints. Thankfully he passed out.
Upon arriving at the airport (Cuba) the coach I was on was the first to be full bar 4 spaces. (10 coaches or so in all). After watching other coaches fill up and be on their way, an hour goes by before a woman comes up and says that one of their party is having a few problems getting through security. A few people make noises but driver said he cant go. 30+ stuck in a banger old bus with no aircon now.
Another 30mins passes and the woman comes back, even more disgruntlement. Will be a bit longer. More moans and a few passengers get off (because of heat). Another 30mins pass and then word gets around the lad has got caught coming through with drugs. Description provided was the loud mouthed idiot on the plane. At this point passengers all start kicking up a fuss. Woman and her husband come back can you wait a bit longer. A few people on the bus challenge her now shouting at her. She says something like "its our holiday as well!"
And after being literally shouted off the bus by everyone over two hours later we are on our way.
Am aware mine will be quite tame compared to some.
What's your worst holiday experience? Or a bad one you have heard from family/friends?

leaving us locked out of house. Waiting and fuming. Hear a car door. Some urge to run and check and thank god I did as my dad was literally lifting up the letterbox to post the key through. Just stop him.
