SonicShimmer+FollowStranded by Delta, Bags on a Plane Without MeI showed up 2.5 hours early for a midnight flight. Delta made us wait 45 minutes just to check bags—no self-check, just a line of tired strangers. We finally get our tickets, walk to security, and the TSA shuts the doors in our faces. "We open again at 3:30." Fifty of us, just standing there, watching the clock. Someone runs back to Delta. Turns out, they rescheduled our flight but forgot to tell the TSA. Our bags made it on the plane. We didn’t. The flight left without us. Now it’s morning. Delta’s overbooked everything. We’re still here, waiting for someone to admit they screwed up and offer more than just a new boarding pass. If you ever wondered what travel limbo feels like, it’s this: your stuff is halfway across the country, and you’re stuck arguing with a desk at sunrise. #Travel #TravelFails #AirportAnxiety00Share
Charles Coleman+Follow$7 Bananas & $24 Big Macs?!Istanbul Airport is officially the priciest airport in the world, and the food prices are next-level wild.

Travelers are losing it over these insane markups—one Redditor even got charged $7 for a banana. If you thought airport food was expensive before, Istanbul just set a new bar. Would you pay these prices or pack your own snacks? #News #TravelFails #AirportLife3622Share
Brad Ramirez+FollowCruising with Seniors = Middle School FlashbacksBooked myself on a fancy cruise for seniors (solo!) to research my romance novel, and OMG, it was like being back in middle school. Cliques, popular kids, awkward cafeteria moments, and even cruise ship 'ambassadors' (think: charming grandpas who dance with the ladies). Tried to make friends at the singles table, ended up people-watching and collecting wild stories—including a love triangle! By the end, I found my own crew and felt like the cool kid for once. Who knew senior cruises had so much drama? #Travel #CruiseLife #TravelFails20Share
Charles Coleman+FollowWhy TSA Scanners Flag Your CrotchEver get flagged at TSA for a pat down in the most awkward spot? Turns out, it’s not just you! People are sharing stories about getting stopped because of, well, sweaty crotches. Apparently, the scanners can pick up on sweat, certain clothes (like leggings), or even feminine products, and flag you for extra screening. Experts say it’s all about how the scanner’s waves bounce off water (aka sweat). Next time you fly, maybe pack some extra powder! #News #TSA #TravelFails30Share
sperkins+FollowTSA Scanners Flagging 'Swamp Crotch'?Airport security drama: travelers are getting flagged at TSA checkpoints because of... crotch sweat. Turns out, sweat (aka 'swamp crotch') can set off those body scanners, leading to some super awkward pat-downs. It’s not just metal—moisture, certain fabrics, and even body shape can trigger alarms. Pro tip: moisture-wicking undies and loose, breathable clothes might save you from an embarrassing moment next time you fly. Anyone else had this happen? #Travel #TravelFails #TSA291265Share
Wesley Romero+FollowWild Coati Crashes Hotel Bed!Imagine walking into your hotel room and finding a wild coati just chilling on your bed! That’s exactly what happened to one tourist in Mexico, and her TikTok reaction is priceless. Turns out, these raccoon-like animals are pretty common in the area, but definitely not your typical roommate. While this furry guest was cute, experts say it’s best to keep your distance from wild animals—no matter how adorable they look! Would you freak out or snap a selfie? #TravelFails #WildEncounters #Coati #Pets60Share
Paige Douglas+FollowWhat Happens If You Buy All the Plane Scratch Cards?Ever wondered if buying every scratch card on a flight could make you rich? One guy tried it on Ryanair, snapping up all 68 packs mid-air, and even got fellow passengers to help scratch. The result? Not a single win! Turns out, your odds of hitting the jackpot are worse than winning the lottery. So next time you’re tempted by those in-flight games, maybe just stick to the free peanuts! #TravelFails #MoneyHacks #LotteryOdds #Business50Share
Sandra Escobar+FollowBear Shuts Down Japanese Airport?!A black bear literally took over Yamagata airport in Japan, causing a dozen flights to get canceled! The bear was spotted running around the runway (caught on camera!), and even after airport staff tried to chase it off with flashing lights, it just wouldn’t leave. Now, hunters and police are on bear patrol, but the furry troublemaker is still out there. Imagine your flight getting delayed because of a bear! Wild times in Japan right now. #BearAlert #JapanNews #TravelFails #News160Share

boothconnor+FollowWaffle House ID vs. TSA: Who Wins?Someone tried to use a Waffle House ID at airport security and the internet lost it! The TSA had to jump in and remind everyone that, nope, your Waffle House badge (or even your Costco card) won’t get you on a plane. The post racked up millions of views, with people joking about how to score their own Waffle House ID. But if you’re flying, stick to the REAL ID or a passport—no hashbrown loyalty required! #WaffleHouse #TSA #TravelFails #News10Share
