Headphones, tantrums and call buttons: Why travelers are losing it in the air
Headphones, tantrums and call buttons: Why travelers are losing it in the air Show Caption Hide Caption How biometrics make airport experiences smoother for travelers Biometrics like face scanning and fingerprints are becoming more common, streamlining the airport experience for travelers everywhere. Selfishness and a lack of consideration for others are contributing to the rise of entitled behavior on airplanes. Crowded planes, stress, and the pandemic are some of the factors that might be contributing to this behavior. Experts suggest staying calm, showing empathy, and directly addressing the issue with the entitled passenger. On a recent flight from Dublin to Istanbul, I heard the unmistakable soundtrack to the kids' TV show "Bob the Builder" blasting through my noise-canceling earbuds. That's funny, I thought. My "Bob the Builder" phase ended when my daughter graduated from kindergarten. And then I realized that the sounds of "Can we fix it? Yes we can!" were actually broadcasting from the row behind me. A mom was playing it for her toddler so loud I could hear it through my Pixel Buds. I asked Mom if she could fix my problem by asking Junior to wear a headset, and thankfully, she said, "Yes, I can." She gave her boy a pair of headphones, and everyone else enjoyed a quiet flight. Check out Elliott Confidential, the newsletter the travel industry doesn't want you to read. Each issue is filled with breaking news, deep insights, and exclusive strategies for becoming a better traveler. But don't tell anyone! But that got me thinking about entitled and inconsiderate behavior on a plane. I'm not the only one who has dealt with a fellow passenger playing entertainment at top volume. In fact, read any news report of a flight diversion, and chances are there's a thoughtless passenger behind it – someone who didn't want to share the overhead bin space, insisted on jamming their seat all the way back, or didn't want to wait to use the bathroom. Why are passengers acting so badly? And what can you do if you're seated next to an entitled traveler? What's wrong with these people? "There's a societal trend toward selfishness – it's 'me-first' and 'me-only,'" said Lori Freemire, a Denver-based flight attendant. "There's little regard for the gate agents or crew trying to do their jobs." Thomas Plante, a professor of psychology at Santa Clara University, said passengers are becoming narcissists. "More and more people think that the world revolves around them and that people should cater to their needs," he told me. "Frankly, it's breathtaking." I'll say. Although my story had a happy ending, others don't. On a recent flight from Seattle to Dallas, Rachel Wagner had the misfortune of sitting next to a passenger who seemed oblivious to the concept of common courtesy. The passenger immediately began watching a movie on her phone − without a headset. Wagner politely asked the passenger if she had earbuds, but the woman replied 'no' and continued watching her movie. After takeoff, Wagner, who was wearing noise-canceling earbuds, could still hear the movie. Again, she politely asked the passenger if she had earbuds. 'Why don't you just get your own plane!' the woman snapped. Oh, and here's the kicker: Wagner is an etiquette expert, so you know she was extra-polite when she asked. In retrospect, she said, she should have gotten a flight attendant to intervene instead of dealing with the entitled passenger herself. That's sound advice. Flying with an infectious disease in 2025: Do's and don'ts Why are passengers acting like this? Experts say there are reasons for this shift in attitudes when traveling by plane – and specifically, this entitled behavior. Crowded planes. Airlines are flying with record load factors, which means there are more passengers on each flight. Add the loss of personal space because of shrinking seat sizes, and up go the chances you'll be seated next to an irritated – and irritating – passenger.

Stress. The discomfort of modern air travel, with its tight schedules, cramped seating and endless lines, can turn even the most even-tempered passenger into a raging monster. "'I've observed that the uptick in demanding passenger behavior can be partly attributed to the stress of navigating heightened regulations and expectations in the travel industry," said Vlad Vynohradov, a transportation logistics expert.

"'I've observed that the uptick in demanding passenger behavior can be partly attributed to the stress of navigating heightened regulations and expectations in the travel industry," said Vlad Vynohradov, a transportation logistics expert. Rising ticket prices. 'Passengers paying higher prices are also expecting better service,' noted Mike Taylor, who heads up travel research at J.D. Power. That's not all. Facebook, Instagram and X have nurtured a culture of complaints. Passengers know that if they take to X or Facebook to complain about their flight experience, they are likely to get a response from the airline. "Social media has set the stage for the go-nuclear mentality," said Susan Sherren, who runs the travel agency Couture Trips. Bottom line: Air travelers are more self-absorbed and stressed than ever. And it shows. Vivian Au, a flight behavior expert and founder of Air Corporate, says passenger demands have spiked in the past year. For example, on the Los Angeles to New York routes, the flight attendant call button is getting pushed 40% more often than in 2023. "First-class travelers now demand responses in under two minutes," she told me. What if you're seated next to an entitled passenger? If you fly, chances are at some point you'll be sitting next to someone who does something objectionable as if they own the plane. Charlie Neville, marketing director at JayWay Travel, said preparation and patience are key when dealing with these problem passengers. "I'd recommend adopting a more mindful approach to travel – accepting that delays and hiccups are part of the journey and staying calm through it all," he said. Being in a good mind space ensures that when you run into someone who is entitled, you'll be better able to handle them without getting emotionally involved. "When dealing with demanding passengers, staying calm and addressing the situation with facts rather than emotions can be highly effective in de-escalating a situation,' added Ryan Saroli, CEO of Flygreen, a jet chartering service. You'll also want to show some empathy, experts said. Joanna Teljeur, a spokeswoman for AirAdvisor, said your seatmate who is having a meltdown and jabbing the flight attendant call button is also human. "Empathy in all situations is important," Teljeur said. It may actually be the first step to resolving the problem. I prefer the direct approach: Take a deep breath and politely but directly ask the entitled passenger to stop behaving like a toddler. Unless, of course, they are a toddler, in which case you'd take it up with Mom, as I did on my flight to Turkey. And if none of that works? Then it's OK for you to push the flight attendant call button – and ask a crew member for help. Here they come! If you think this discussion is theoretical or a repeat of something I've recently written, I've got news for you: This upcoming summer travel season, which may be the busiest one on record, promises to be full of entitled passenger incidents. Other than deep breathing exercises and a quality headset, I'm not sure if there's a way to prepare for the Summer of the Entitled Passenger. (Oh no, did I just coin a term? I hope not.) Maybe there's a way to fix this problem. Airlines can start offering a humane amount of personal space again, just like they did before the unfortunate deregulation of the airline industry. They can ensure their passengers have enough food and water instead of trying to sell them everything. They can stop charging junk fees for a reserved seat or luggage. If they did that, I bet the entitled passengers would disappear overnight. Christopher Elliott is an author, consumer advocate, and journalist.

Jennifer Lopez raising her kids in NYC; twins are ‘insanely talented'
(NewsNation) — I have to hand it to Jennifer Lopez. She could have sent her twins, Max and Emme, to a school in Los Angeles where they would have been surrounded by nepobabies and influencers. Instead, Lopez is keeping the kids she had with ex, Marc Anthony, firmly grounded in New York City. Kevin Spacey uncanceled? His comeback is in the works: Exclusive Both children attend great schools (I know which ones, but am not saying) and act and sing. Max appeared recently in a school play, and parents told me he was 'very good,' while Emme is said to have an 'amazing voice' and is 'shockingly smart' in school. One insider said of Emme, 'She clearly got her father's pipes, because man, that girl can sing!' Max usually stays out of the limelight, but Emme is frequently seen with their mom, most recently at the 'Othello' premiere on Broadway where they mingled with the show's stars, Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal. Lopez, meanwhile is putting the year from hell (2024) firmly behind her and focusing on her latest projects: the upcoming 'Kiss of the Spider Woman' (which premiered to middling reviews at Sundance but will have a theatrical release this fall) as well as 'Office Romance,' 'Bob the Builder' and 'The Godmother' (all of which are in various stages of production). GloRilla ends St. Louis show early after fights break out A rep for Lopez didn't return emails.

Rachel Reeves is in danger of being boxed in by her own rules
The story of this Spring Statement is that welfare has been cut back to make up for a notable rise in the cost of servicing the national debt. There is also a trim to the money being given to government is relatively little else actually happening in policy terms. There were no tax rises, no changes to Chancellor Rachel Reeves' borrowing rules and as expected, this was definitely not a real question now is whether the chancellor can escape from a never-ending cycle of microhaggling with the government's independent forecaster the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) in this way, twice a year for the rest of the asked about whether new tax rises could now come in the Autumn like last year, she said emphatically: "We'll never have to do a Budget like that again."But the numbers are precarious and extremely sensitive to the economic and political changes around the the US imposes 20% tariffs on the UK next week, it could lead to a downgrade in UK growth and "wipe out" the £9.9bn headroom the chancellor has to meet her borrowing rule, the OBR chairman, Richard Hughes, told uncertainties include higher interest rates and lower UK productivity, he said, adding that "the risks are very elevated".That is why growth, confidence, and comprehensive economic strategy is so June there should be new plans for trade, industry and infrastructure. In the next few weeks, there could be an economic deal with the US, and the start of a Brexit reset with the the uncertainties, the OBR's judgement on the economy was better than had been expected.

28 Things That Will Bring Order To Your Home In A Snap
1. A plastic bag dispenser that neatly fits in your drawer so you don't have to battle with five crushed cardboard boxes. You can store this horizontally in a drawer or get fancy and mount it vertically in a cabinet. These come with optional sticker labels, so you know which size bag you're grabbing. YouCopia is a woman-owned small business that specializes in home storage solutions. Promising review:"I like it very much. Not so large. Lightweight. Would look nice on top of the counter. What I like is that you do not have to wrangle the box into the slots. Simply pick up the roll of bags from their packaging and put them in the designated slot." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in three- or four-slot models). 2. A set of airtight food storage containers so you can ditch all the ripped cardboard and leaky flour bags you have in the cabinet right now. Speaking as someone who recently dealt with a pantry moth problem, airtight storage is the way to go. This 14-piece set comes with reusable labels, a marker, *and* a measuring spoon set! Promising review:"No matter how many times I tried to make the package clutter in my pantry look nice, it wasn't happening. I tried the pop-top containers before, but things still got stale and were too expensive to do the entire pantry. This set was so affordable that I bought two of them and was able to finally get everything organized! I've had no issues with things getting stale, and my 4-year-old is now able to easily see, access, and open cereal or snacks when he wants to. Definitely recommend!" — Fisch Get a pack of four from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in four colors and various multipacks). 3. Under-cabinet containers you can install in areas that were previously considered at capacity. They maximize space under sinks, in pantries, and beneath shelves, meaning you can finally fit even more stuff in your home! The jars are airtight and self-seal when you put them back, so you can store anything from coffee beans to cotton swabs in them. Each jar is sold in a set of two or three and comes with its own magnetic rims and one stainless steel shelf plate. Vascito is a Michigan-based small biz that provides high-tech home storage and organization products. Promising review:"AMAZING! I love this product. The containers are a good quality and the rims unscrew for easy cleaning. They really are tightly sealed, and there is no need for a lid. The customer service was fab, providing personalized labels, and the delivery was amazingly quick considering I'm in England!" — samhhawk99 Get it from Vascito on Etsy for $51.95+ (available in four sizes and two colors). 4. An interlocking storage organization set that lets you harness the power of CUBES. Assemble them in whatever grid works best for your closet. The set comes with a little rubber mallet so you can feel like Bob the Builder while creating your ideal storage unit. Promising review:"I put these in my closet to make extra shelves for sweaters/sweatshirts. They were easy to assemble and worked great at adding additional space to my closet. I like that my clothes don't topple over into the pile next to them anymore. They were easy to put together, and if I move, they will be easy to take apart, put in a small box, and move. I'm very happy with this purchase." — Goldensummerdog Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in five colors and two sizes). 5. A slender storage cabinet you can sneak into the little space next to the toilet. Cleaning supplies, extra toilet paper, and reading materials are now conveniently within reach! Promising review:"So easy to put together I could put it together with my eyes closed. Fit amazingly perfectly between the tub and the toilet, and it has created so much more space, and my bathroom is no longer cluttered because of this product." — COS45B Get it from Amazon for $35.68+ (available in three colors). 6. A silverware sorter that takes up very little space in your drawer but can fit up to 24 pieces of cutlery. With the extra space, the possibilities are endless. Maybe it's time for a novelty monstera slotted spoon? Promising review:"I have a tiny kitchen with only three drawers, so space is at a premium. My silverware organizer took up almost all of one drawer, so this organizer is a godsend. You can fit quite a few spoons, etc., in each slot. My beater attachments fit perfectly into the top two hollows. I will say I have to flip my forks over face down in order to be able to shut and open my drawer, but then the drawer itself is kind of shallow. You NEED this if you have a small kitchen with few drawers!" — mialro Get it from Amazon for $9.52+ (available in three sizes and styles). 7. A wineglass rack you can put anywhere in your home: on the bar cart, under kitchen cabinets, under floating shelves — you name it. This feels a little safer than just having them floating around in the cabinet, ready to fall out and shatter. BTW, one rack can hold up to nine standard size glasses. Promising review:"Overall, very pleased with the product. Found some floating shelves to match a cabinet. Then added these to make my custom wine stem rack. Quality is better than expected, and I love the darker finish and not the standard Chrome option. These also were the right size for the width and depth of the Shelf. So far, I've gotten several compliments." — Ms Lila Get it from Amazon for $19.93+ (available in four colors and three sizes). 8. A thin rolling shelf to slip in that weird space between your fridge and cabinets. Or between your laundry machine and the wall. Or in the garage next to your car. Wherever you have a tiny sliver of unused space. Promising review: "I bought this for my bedroom to hold extra things next to my bed. It was so easy to put together. I would highly recommend it to anyone who might need something like this. 😀" — william Get it from Amazon for $16.89+ (available in two sizes and five colors). 9. A tea bag organizer for avid tea drinkers who are sick of getting hit with an avalanche of boxes every time they open their cupboard. This slim device can fit up to 120 standard-sized bags. Amazon Promising review:"It holds so many; the storage capacity is wild! It was able to clean up all of our various types of tea boxes and slim down the space. I should have bought this sooner." — BB Get it from Amazon for $22.94+ (available in two sizes). 10. An elastic organizer to detangle the huge ball of cords and chargers tumbling around in your bag. Promising review:"I used to be like you. Wake up, blindly shower, maybe make some eggs if you have any energy left after those other chores. Weren't you planning on going to the gym this morning? Ugh, sorry, health, lifting all the hard drives and other electronics from one bag and putting them in the other will have to do again because it takes forever to get everything I need later in the day across the border from pack to duffel. Grid-It is like a Nexus pass for bags. Cross packs in seconds securely and hassle-free. You will be amazed by the gear combos you can pack on just one of these. I carry envelopes and stamps in the zip-up pocket on the back now and get a weird amount of admiration for keeping such old-school yet extremely relevant supplies on hand for friends or passers-by." — Josh Get it from Amazon for $14.24. 11. An under-cabinet drawer that'll bring order to whatever cabinet you've been avoiding lately. Grabbing a sponge will now be a two-second activity instead of a 15-minute scavenger hunt. Promising review:"These are nice pieces that helped me organize underneath my bathroom sink! They fit perfectly! After organizing everything, I was so surprised I had so much more room that I grabbed more items out of the linen closet to fill it up. I still have a lot of room left. I bought these based off the high ratings, and they hold true." — Brad J. Leahy Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in two colors). 12. A set of Sheet Keeper bands ready to keep your sheet sets together and properly labeled. GOODBYE, frantically searching for a matching pillowcase before your guests arrive in 30 minutes. SheetKeeper / Etsy Sheet Keeper is a woman-owned small business based in Los Angeles, and their adorable bedding bands will actually make staying organized fun! Promising review:"Great product. Came quickly,y and they work great! Such a great idea to keep sheets organized and together while being able to tell what size bedding it is.

Bumble Made is a small business that created the O-Sheet bedding holder for sheets, pillowcases, and other linens. Promising review: "This is literally one of the best products I've ever purchased.

Thank you!" — Jennifer Briney Get it from Bumble Made on Etsy for $16.80+ (available in three sizes and five colors). 14. A shower shelf for the corner of your bathroom or shower because every inch of your home deserves multi-level storage options. The cute little soap dish is honestly enough to sell me on this, tbh! Promising review:"This is great for my stand-up shower. There is no space for my things and the shower racks that hang over the showerhead were not enough. This fit perfectly in the corner and got everything I needed. Would definitely recommend." — Destinie Arguello Get it from Amazon for $24.99. 15. An expanding file folder you can fill with up to 200 pieces of paper and free up sooo much desk space.

Amazon Promising review: "I am going through some legal things, and this folder has been perfect for keeping all my paperwork together! And boy can it hold a lot! The snap closure is very sturdy, and the color is spot on!! An amazing value and great quality!" — MomOf2 Get it from Amazon for $6.98 (available in 16 colors). 16. A set of 3D-printed KitchenAid Tool holders so you finally have a place to store those darn things. They come with Command strips for easy installation, but you could also drill them in.

An over-the-cabinet-door holder so you can fit even more cooking sheets, cutting boards, and other flat kitchen items in your kitchen.

A set of Shoe Slotz that lets you stack shoes on top of each other, meaning you can DOUBLE your storage space. In the words of Kelly, let's get some shoes.

Just imagine a dusty mess with shoes thrown all over each other in a sad attempt at giving some appearance of order, and you will have a good idea of why buying this shoe organizer was one of the best ideas I've had this year. The floor now looks so neat and tidy I can't believe my eyes every time I open my closet doors." — Veronica, just an average reader, you know? Get a set of 10 from Amazon for $29.99 (also available in multi-packs). 20.
