"Couples wandering along in a world of their own, dragging cases behind them. Oblivious to faster walkers (me) really get on my tits. Ban them? " No encourage them. Tell them to take their time. We can avoid them in the supermarkets then as that's when they are at their worst. | |||

"Walk past them. Easy. Well if they are infront & blocking you, You can't walk infront...Think thats the point hes making lol" And if you bothered reading on, you ask politely if they'd mind stepping aside to allow you through. It's not rocket science. Who knows, they may even move over, thus allowing you to arrive at your destination a whole minute or two earlier than planned. | |||

I bet they are the same people that stand up on the aircraft as soon as the seat belt sign goes off. Haul their bags out of the overhead lockers and wait for the next 15/20 mins while I snooze in my seat. | |||

"People who stop dead at the top of escalators hesitating with bovine indifference as to what to do next get my goat.

The amount of people that have tutted or huffed or been out right rude is ridiculous.. worse as she always wears a lanyard with a "Im disabled " sign on it What really gets my goat is people's lack of patience at things that aren't really an issue and may cost you seconds. | |||

" Yes but people shouldn't assume getting on is easy. We take for granted that its just a case of stepping on... but i can assure you for many many people it takes a moment or two... and it doesnt really hurt people.. if a little personal space was given then there would be no bumping into others. I will go as far as just sitting on a platform for a bit with my daughter or in a coffee shop and wait if our trips coincide with rush hour so as not to bump into rushy people. But I dont see the point in rushing any where | |||

"There was a redit post a couple months back, A mathematics student worked out that if Every obese person globally lost weight then we would not have to increase energy production globally for 50 years, Airtravel would be cheaper & More effiecient. Not to mention no excuse to walk slow infront of me Not all slow walkers are fat. " the people saying that have obviously not seen me when I hear free cake for the first 10 customers | |||

"Couples wandering along in a world of their own, dragging cases behind them. Oblivious to faster walkers (me) really get on my tits. Ban them? " Tell you who to ban. The restaurant zombies in hotels. Mindless morons wandering about with empty plates, against the flow of bodies, fucking clueless to their surroundings. And as for the dickheads who stand like statues in front of the coffee machine, unable to work out how to dispense a cup of hot water !!! God give me strength. | |||

"So called duty free prices which are often a rip off. I love the perk of shopping at the airport before I go to work each week. Most things are not a rip off. Does depend on the airport though. Copenhagen is ridiculously expensive. I only do long haul work so don’t go there thankfully. Which is your favourite for bargains then? Depends, some places for alcohol, some for cigarettes dead cheap, others for more luxury items. I think Heathrow is still one of the better ones that I go to. Hong Hong and Dubai is a fantastic airport but mainly luxury items. " Haven’t been to Hong Kong for 12 years but I agree about Dubai and Heathrow. Although I really dislike Heathrow if things go wrong, that’s nothing to do with finding bargains though Munich can be really good at times and Malpensa is often really good value for booze as well as some interesting clothing. | |||

" I go to Hong long lots and get annoyed by the vast amount of slow walkers there. They are definitely not fat. I walk too fast and I’m not slim. I too get irked at airports as I work on the planes but I see all sizes dawdling. There are many other things that bug crew us about travellers than slow walkers. " I walk quite fast but never as fast as Londoners !! I remember the first time I arrived in London, I have to squeeze myself and walk close to the wall to avoid the bustling 'traffic' of rushing people . Some of them are on stillettos - I am truly amazed and impressed at their athleticism. I pity them though - always rushing and running and seems to chase something (the tubes I assume). . I love people watching in the airports and train stations. | |||

"I don't mind slow walkers but it's them dickheads with sod all spatial awareness towing their caravans* round with zero regard. *The biggest suitcase they can fit in the overhead without paying for hold luggage." Oi! I love my caravan. I’m more relaxed when towing than I am walking through an airport. | |||

"I go through Dubai a lot and in the old days you used to have to walk bloody miles in a seemingly unreasonable amount of time. Better now." I recently had an connection at Doha. Got off my inbound flight only to find my next departing flight was from the gate next to me. I had a 4 hour stop over. I think it’s only when you have less than and hour to make you connection do they insist your departure gate is 3 x inter-terminal train connections and a 4 mile walk away! | |||

It is probably also worth saying that in a group discussion not to take any comment personally. | |||
