Air travel has certainly lost its lustre over the years. We've heard all kinds of horror stories about the behavior of airline personnel. Some passengers are pretty horrible, too. Last year, almost a billion people flew in, into, or from the US. There some things you should do to make the experience less unpleasant, not just for yourself, your fellow travelers, as well. Everyone has someplace to be, not just you. Don't try to cut lines. It's rude! If your "carry on" is too heavy to lift, don't carry it on. If someone is rude, don't blow your cool. It only elevates not only your own stress level, but that of everyone around you. Don't bring hot food onboard. Your fellow passengers won't appreciate the smell in that confined space.  Don't block people out at baggage claim. Click here for more from thrillist.com.
