We were once in the middle row of four seats, just the two of us and another couple. Immediately behind us were 4 very young children between 3 and 6 I’d say, parents nowhere to be seen.
We were ‘treated to seat kicking’ and the, ever so hilarious, up down table game with giggles for over an hour. We tried asking them to stop to no avail. Thankfully when asked, the cabin crew (BA) intervened and found the parents (2 sets sitting much further back all enjoying a drink) and made them swap 2 adults for 2 children. We got glared at for interrupting their fun but had a peaceful rest of the flight.

We were flying from Qantas from Hong Kong to Sydney and when we got on the plane noticed that including us there were only 3 Europeans in economy. The section was filled with a touring party from mainland China, all dressed in the same bright red nylon track suits. We lost 2 or 3 slots because as fast as their hand luggage was put up by the CC they took it down and held it on their knees.
I needed my diabetic kit from my hand luggage as I felt a hypo coming on, lovely CC brought me a pile of snacks and orange juice as we had sat there so long. Riot almost ensued as everyone demanded the same. They were threatened with being thrown off. Once we actually took off they lay down in every conceivable space, using hand luggage for pillows, and refused to move. When it was mealtime there was an announcement that only people sat in their seat would be served, served, that was 3 meals. The group leader was going hairless as he had no control. On arrival in Australia I was dreading being behind them at customs but the CC had a word and we were waved through while the group were taken off to a room. |
