When we see English learning as a vocation, we are required to change our thinking. To see ourselves as having positive visions of the future instead of negative affirmations of how bad our English is.

More and more people are once again booking flights to exciting places around the world.

But as they take their seats, many travelers will remember that spending time with other passengers is not always easy.

Travel website Only Wanderlust surveyed over 1,500 travelers about the most annoying passengers on a plane.

Nine percent of travelers agreed that people who kick your seat are the most annoying passengers. Here are the top 10 on the list.

A passenger who kicks your seat.
A passenger who doesn't smell too nice.
A passenger who talks loudly.
A passenger who pulls on — or pushes against — your seat.
A drunk passenger.
Crying babies or children.
A passenger in front of you reclining their seat.
A passenger wearing strong smelling perfume.
A passenger who doesn't wear their mask correctly.
A passenger who snores when sleeping.
Number seven on the list is a topic that is often discussed.

In the survey, Only Wanderlust asked if passengers have a right to recline their seats, and almost two out of three travelers said that they did.

The website also asked some airline companies about the right to recline. None of the airlines said they had a policy on this topic. But they recommended talking to the passenger in front or behind, or if there is an argument, asking a member of staff for help.

As for crying babies: they can't really help it. But as we get older, perhaps we can all try to think about the people around us when we're on a plane.
