I travel a lot for work, so I enjoy reading some of the articles here.

There was one a while back that hit on one of my pet peeves, people that stand up close to the baggage belt so that they are blocking access from anyone behind them. (These same folks always seem to have three family members with them so they stand shoulder to shoulder.)

Here are a couple of other ones for you.

The people that stop at the top or bottom of the escalator. Probably the same ones who stand in the middle of a high traffic area when they could easily step aside to answer their phone, or adjust their luggage, or gaze around with a befuddled look.

The people who are alone but take up three seats in the gate area because they have their luggage and breakfast and laptop spread out around them, while there are other standing because of the lack of open seats.

Thanks, I feel better now.
