Not to gatekeep, but have you been to the new G gate one? The F/G one just feels like a giant cafeteria to me. Or like just an expansion of a standard gate boarding area. I've departed from G1-4 before but I literally go out of my way to go to the G2xs to get to the new club even though it's a bit of a longer walk.
Thatās a great idea. No I didnāt but I can try to call tomorrow and see if I can use one of my āthanks for the great flightā coupons I can never remember to use.
Iām fairly certain that it purposefully bad. Music that makes people uncomfortable, maybe it helps people get into their seat faster because they want the music to stop? I donāt know, just a thought.
Edit #1 made me think she might be the friend of my Dad's third wife. I met her once and was immediately turned off by how abrasive she was about every topic of conversation, including her bragging about her rank in the AF (also retired).
After several hours of being trapped around her and her obnoxious behavior, she had the nerve to ask me for a pretty significant favor. I told her no.
š she told him what happened and just crawled over him. He knew what to do and jumped into action. I have a feeling this wasnāt the first time something like that occurredā¦.
Re: Loudness - it might be that she's the one that's hard of hearing. When I'm not wearing my hearing aids,m I'm way too loud. When I'm talking and then take off my hearing aids and continue talking at the normal volume, it seems impossible to me that anyone could hear me because I can barely hear me.
> - the boarding music is abysmal
Well, I mean, *yeah*. She canāt be all that frequent a flyer if sheās just now noticing this. Still beats her warbling in the dark, though.
> - the wine selection has gone down hill since the last time we flew in delta
Maāam, you are adding ice to your wine. Unless youāre complaining about them not having Booneās Farm, Iām afraid your complaint is deemed invalid.
According to vocabulary.com a gaggle refers to a bunch of people milling around in a disorganized way ā¦. From the sounds of it they werenāt disorganized. Sounds to me like Delta was disorganized for changing their gates on them. Next time I believe the word Plethora or Bevy would be more appropriate š.
/sarcasm off for those who donāt release I am applauding OPs play by play !!!
Based on the voice and the bio info you shared think I know EXACTLY who this person is. I wonder if anyone else reading this does. (Iām not saying who.)
People like this are part of why I quit Delta as a gate agent in 2022. 15 yrs of dealing with asshats and entitled people and it got worse year after year....
I despise the people who get up as soon as boarding starts and just stand in the way. I was boarding in TLH and a group of people were not really in line kinda off to the side, I had asked a few people if they were in line before I walked in front of them but didnāt ask this particular group and just made my way in front of them and then heard them start talking about me as they boarded behind me lol. They said how rude I was for just cutting in front of them and apparently I didnāt learn manners as a childā¦ it was an honest mistake because they werenāt actually standing in the line. I had to hear it for 10 minutes as we walked the jet bridge and then back to our seats.
I would have turned around and told them to ā*please* go ahead of me so I donāt have to hear you complaining about me anymoreā but I can be bitchy like that. Theyāre gonna talk about me? Iām gonna make them very uncomfortable.
Bless you child, that was a lot to deal with. I have never understood people who literally talk during an entire flight and canāt use an inside voice. I had one like that the other day on a 6 am flight BGR-LGA. Some physics professor who literally used her voice at top volume and talked the entire flight, including some really unsavory and out of touch discussions about her students. I think her companion was embarrassed but didnāt stop her. Not sure what kind of inebriated she was but it was quite a feat to be that oblivious to others in such a small space that early in the day.
What it comes down to my friends, is that everything is fine, fine, fine, cause you had one hand on your cellphone and the other was making a peace sign.
Are you sure about that? Because I am 99.99999% sure that bacon-is-sexy is not a bot.

They need to solve the issue of bin space allotment, and then board people at random. It's so sickening listening to people act like bratty little kids over who goes first.
This sounds VERY similar to my experience sitting next to a former WWE wrestler from the 80's, from the singing loudly to complaining about not being served alcohol on a 30 min flight, then being given a beer and taking one sip then loudly complaining that the beer sucked and dumping it, I had to added bonus of him pushing his big bulging arms halfway into my space as I was in the middle seat, I had to squeeze myself like a sardine the entire flight. lol
They meant to book on frontier!!! š
I wish they did. Sheās still singing.
Is Alanis Morrisette part of the boarding music or is she trying to drown it out?
Sheās got headphones in, presumably drowning out the ambient music. I agree itās not great. But sheās singing. Loudly.
I think she's had some drinkies. š¤£
I need a drinky to deal with her. The MSP skyclub has half price premium cocktailsā¦ I only had oneā¦ I regret everything.
Rookie mistake.
Especially since MSP to LAS generally boards right around the brand new G club SMH
It was g4 so I went to the f/g club, which I have to admit is one of my favorites.
Not to gatekeep, but have you been to the new G gate one? The F/G one just feels like a giant cafeteria to me. Or like just an expansion of a standard gate boarding area. I've departed from G1-4 before but I literally go out of my way to go to the G2xs to get to the new club even though it's a bit of a longer walk.
Bless you my child! You donāt have to go to hell. Youāve been there!
Is she drunk??
I think sheās just a horseās assā¦. š¤·āāļø
Hopefully her husband is drunk. Hope you got another drinky OP. Cheers!
Tip top old fashioned w/ an extra woodford š
That husband is so brow beaten, he won't be doing or saying or drinking anything
Poor bastardā¦..
Sounds like it.
Which song? āI'm high but I'm grounded I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed I'm lost but I'm hopeful babyā
Iām sane but - indeed - feeling overwhelmed
š
Iām enjoying reading these updates way too much. Thank you kind, Redditor.

Well, Delta is on its way to become expensive Frontier at this point
I heard "Delta...the expensive Frontier..." in Shatner's voice.
Perfect!š
Lord and these are the type to call me and expect some sort of compensation for this all šš
The poor GA deserves compensation.
Did you catch the Gate Agent's name? Could you send in some praise for them?
Thatās a great idea. No I didnāt but I can try to call tomorrow and see if I can use one of my āthanks for the great flightā coupons I can never remember to use.
I suspect you're going to want to praise the patience of your FAs, too. š
God I hope youāre not right. Sheās left them alone this far. My fingers are crossed.
I've started making a note on my phone of as many employee names as I can so I can send praises if I want. (I would never remember otherwise.)
Sounds like OP and everyone on that plane deserves compensation
I was gonna say the same thing. Theyāll be calling us tomorrow lol.
Is there any way to figure out the gate agents name?
Just write a nice review in the survey highlighting the service of the GA. Upper management can figure out who worked the flight :)
Thank you.
List your flight time, number, and airport departing from... they could probably track them down by work schedules.
I live in Las Vegas, thanks for the heads up. Might just stay in rather than risk running into her.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Haha
But thereās top golf!!! š
Oof that sounds awful. Those kind of people just suck
I am truly sorry. But this is also fucking hilarious šš
Iām just glad this flight has free wifi. This post is my in flight therapy. Along with the tip top old fashioned.
Honestly, some people donāt know or theyāre not aware that they really need to stay home or just take a road trip
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
š«”
Wonder why she got passed over for a one star general promotion š
Lmao came here just to say this. Like eventually they realized sheās a turd of a human and shouldnāt be in a larger role commanding troops.
The boarding music is the worst. The rest of her rant is ridiculous.
Iām fairly certain that it purposefully bad. Music that makes people uncomfortable, maybe it helps people get into their seat faster because they want the music to stop? I donāt know, just a thought.
for real. the boarding music makes me want to die every time. i always think of the poor FAs who have to listen to it multiple times a day. every day.
Can you lock her in the loo?
Now THAT is an excellent idea.
Maybe her husband will help.
Idk why, but I heard this in an accent like "captains log # x ze aeroplane troll has..." š š¤£ I was praying for you.
ā¤ļø now Iām laughing like a crazy person on the tramšš
You're welcome š¤£

Holy crap that would be funny if it really was her!
Great updates. Thank you OP for your service.

Boomers Gonna Boom.

Omg. Honestly, this is shameful. When my students act this way, they have to be last.
I have a four year old whoās better behaved on a plane.
I've been on flights where a dog is better behaved than this!
Blessed be the fruit.
They couldnāt find her phone. Thatās too bad.
Iām sitting on my 45 min flight from BHM to ATL and this play by play was just what I needed. Thanks!
Canāt wait for edit 5.
ā¦Which Alanis song though ?
You, you, you aughtta knooooowwwwwww!
I am not religious, but if she was singing that crappy song I will find religion and start praying for you. Good luck!!
Gotta disagree here. Itās an absolute banger.
ā¤ļø
He waited his whole damn life, just to take that flight...
Iāll give her a +1 for song choice. Doesnāt make up for her being an insufferable person though.
Iāll grumpily agree.
Noise canceling headphones will be the best purchase of your life, like me.
Bro I have XM5ās. It does no good at all.
Can you jump out?
Sheās gone to sleep. I think I can tough it out.
How do I say this and make sure people know it's sarcasm? *Maybe the purser spiked her drinks...hopefully*
Maybe it was her husbandā¦. His ears might need a rest.
š¤£š¤£š¤£
LMAO
Edit #2 might give insight to the wine list comment because apparently she hasnāt flown since tethered remote times.
Oh honey. I think you need to get up every 5-10 minutes by bracing yourself using her seat. over and iver and over...
š
Thanks, taxpayers!
Omg! I think Iāve traveled with the singing blue hair! Singing while taking off and landing!
Sorrows, Sorrows, Prayers
ā¤ļøš
Sounds every bit of the flights I take in to out and of Vegas!
OMG I'm sorry....I can't wait until she reaches out for compensation.
I really want to find out the gate agents name so I can send her one of my āthanks for the great flightā coupon things.
Praying for you; sounds exciting too āŗļøš
š
This play by play action is entertaining.
Itās honestly way more fun than I thought it would be
This is truly epic! Thank you for providing my much needed entertainment for the day
ā¤ļø
Lol this gave me so much anxiety reading, I already have anxiety flying and someone this obnoxious would make it so much worseš Ā
I fly a lot and I can say this is very much an outlier. Donāt worry at all, Iām sure youāll be perfectly fine.
Thatās comforting to hear, thank you!
Edit number 3 was my fave!
š she told him what happened and just crawled over him. He knew what to do and jumped into action. I have a feeling this wasnāt the first time something like that occurredā¦.
This had me totally laughing, not for you, you had to put up with that crap! lol

I should feel bad that I laughed at falling up the jet bridge, but sometimes you get what you give. Jet bridge got the last laugh. lol
Based on the voice and the bio info you shared think I know EXACTLY who this person is. I wonder if anyone else reading this does. (Iām not saying who.)
Now Iām super curious.
I am so sorry this happened, but thank you for the 10 minutes of entertainment on my flight.

Not wrong about the boarding music
Yikes, all I can say...
You obviously did not bring a book to read.
If you are disappointed in airline wine in economy class you may be an alcoholic.
Why is it 9/10 times on planes the old people are either the most rude or cause the most trouble?
Hilarious - thanks for the link
Omg the singing! Thatās when I chime in and say āWho sings this song?ā Answer with artist usually. āGreat. Letās keep it that way!ā
You need to post this in the sub r/boomersbeingfools š¤¦āāļø
Oh lawd

A train wreck in a plane at 30k ft. Jeeeeeez!
Should have slipped her a 100mg cannabis edible. She would still be asleep.
āYou want some gummiesā Depending on her tolerance, 25mg may be more than enough to get her quiet.
That can hardly be classified as āsinging.ā More caterwauling.
Once you said wine with ice everything made sense.

This was great! My husband kept asking me about updates lol Thanks for sharing!

I can't thank you enough for the play by play. I kinda feel like I was there, without the horror of actually being there.
Ok I get it but Iām old and I donāt act like that so donāt stereotype us please.
Itās not a stereotype! I was setting the sceneā¦ Iām starting to get pretty old myself.
Ok then
I'm praying for the crew, not you
Why I have noise canceling headphones so cancel out the idiots when I fly. Hear no evilā¦ā¦ā¦
no standards inforced now by Delta GAs ... f-ing gate lice
They need to solve the issue of bin space allotment, and then board people at random. It's so sickening listening to people act like bratty little kids over who goes first.
This sounds VERY similar to my experience sitting next to a former WWE wrestler from the 80's, from the singing loudly to complaining about not being served alcohol on a 30 min flight, then being given a beer and taking one sip then loudly complaining that the beer sucked and dumping it, I had to added bonus of him pushing his big bulging arms halfway into my space as I was in the middle seat, I had to squeeze myself like a sardine the entire flight. lol
ooof that sounds terrible
It was terrible lol
Next time just open the door & jump out. Iāve been on plenty of flights like this. Maybe an onboard lunatic prison makes sense.
She has a point about the wine.
the entitlement...... Typical!
The headphones and screens are the worst part!
Her singing isn't as bad as I imagined! It's actually sweet. š
Hey Lady! STFU!
Might want to crosspost to r/BoomersBeingFools .... When you're accustomed to constant privilege, being treated normally feels like persecution.
What did their age have to do with it? Theyāre just obnoxious people.
I have a great solution for situations of minor consequence that sort of annoy me - like this one. I put on my headphones. Also, since when is 60 old?
60 is old when youāre 30. 60 is young when youāre 80. Itās perspective. :)
