The worst co-passenger on a plane

Recently i went back to jakarta for a business trip. It was a short trip and much to my surprise i had fun and for the first time, i truly enjoyed the food of jakarta. I also liked where i stayed, a small guesthouse but has hotel-like facilities, except for the non-existent wireless connection. I guess there has to be one thing that will not make you happy.

Well i thot that was the only thing i would not like in this trip. But alas, something or should i say someone did manage to make my return plane ride so uncomfy that i almost wanted to shout to the pilot, can you please stop and i'll wait for the next flight. LOL! I had the misfortune of sitting beside this passenger who all throughout the flight did only three things: picked his nose (about half of the time), eat the food served to him (about 5 minutes only), and scratched his head (the other half). It was really so yucky and so rude that i was so tempted to ask to be seated somewhere else. I had to hide behind the Strait Times and managed to finish reading it from cover to cover. LOL! I thot i had seen the worst when i had a co-passenger before on an Air India flight that took off his shoes and lie down and made use of the empty seat as well beside me. I was horrified back then and i am more horrified now with this guy. It did not help that he looked a bit scary so I dare not even look at his face. I wished i could have an excuse to take a photo of him picking his nose so i could send it to SIA and tell them to please make sure i dont get to travel with this guy much less seat beside him next time i travel to jakarta. I could not even eat my food during the flight.

What about you? What was your worst co-passenger?
