“Jeez,” the woman next to me said.
“I’m so glad this is over. I don’t ever want to see that woman again. Maybe we’ll end up next to each other on another flight.
Without a Karen this time.”
“Here’s hoping,” I said, and for the first time since the flight started, I genuinely laughed.

If you enjoyed this story, here’s another one:
While Crystal and her husband, Alton, are on a flight home, they encounter an annoying passenger who continuously kicks against Alton’s seat. After asking her to stop numerous times, Crystal decides to take matters into her own hands.
I was on a flight with my husband last night. We were finally on our way back home after spending a week with his parents.
I couldn’t wait to be back in my own bed.
“I’ve missed our shower the most,” Alton said. “Mom and dad’s place is okay, but our water pressure is unbeatable.”
We boarded and everything seemed like it would be a smooth journey.
“Come, I’ll take your bags, Crystal,” Alton said, taking my backpack.
Finally, we settled into our seats, and soon after, the hum of the engines was the comforting white noise I needed to dose off on the flight.
But as I was pushing my seat back, I noticed something that immediately set my teeth on edge. The woman in the row behind us had her bare feet up on my husband’s seat.
“Why?” I muttered to myself at the same time the woman kicked Alton’s seat.
She was chatting animatedly with her friend, completely oblivious to how rude she was being.
I glanced at my husband, hoping that he’d do something. He’s usually so patient, but this was too much even for him.
