Top 5: 4th of December 2013

At the end of each month I´ll give you a small resume of the top 5 and bottom 5 passengers´ nationalities to work and fly with according to the results of the poll you may find above in this Blog

1) Japanese: and the award of the year to best passenger goes to (drums in the background, silence in the hall, camera 1 traveling, camera 2 zoom x 2) Japanese! This simple little robotic people with soul are the best traveling companion that someone could ever dream of. Not only they are well mannered, extremely well groomed, precise with their time and with the time of others but also they are compassionate and responsive. Do you know why Japan is the number 1 country in many areas? Travel with a Japanese and you´ll find out in the blink of an eye. When boarding they go directly to their seat greeting everybody on their way + they tend to pack light + they stay on their seats almost during the whole flight and if they need to stretch they go to the back galley and they do so without disturbing anyone. This is going to sound kind of ridiculous but from my perspective even Japanese babies are like programmed to behave like an adult. It´s like if they are switched into baby mode version 2.0 = they don´t cry.


2) South Korean: the blessing of a Duty Free. If a Duty Free is about to bankrupt, as if that would ever happen, just send South Koreans. I promise that the business will come straight up in seconds. They tend to have a very personal way and style when they travel, they know what fashion is (men and women) and they follow it. Real purses, real shoes, real watches and real attitude. But it´s not that attitude of: I have money and I´m the best, no! It´s the attitude of I know what respect is, I know what values are, I know what commitment is. Not only they know that but they naturally reflect all of it.


3) Swedish: less is more and more is enough. They what traveling is and they define concepts in matters of calculation. It´s like if everything reduces to math’s and time, 2 things that I always detested. If a bag should measure this and that, their bag measures precisely what it should; if boarding starts at 9:17 with 3 seconds they will be exactly at 9:17 with 3 seconds a big difference with their neighbors European countries, punctuality. Short sentences and smart words when it comes to service, they want something and if that option is unenviable they simply become satisfied with their second choice.

4) Norwegian: very similar to Swedish, the only difference is that sometimes they tend to be a little bit more colder that Swedish. It´s like if you may actually count the amount of times that they smile. Nevertheless when it comes to boarding they respond in a very punctual manner; they tend not to move much in the aircraft because they simply don´t like to bother others as they don´t like to be bothered. What is “to be bothered”? Ask questions about “things” especially if you didn´t understand the explanation.

5) Canadians: grey zone. Very simple and innocent travelers. Wait, we shouldn´t mix innocence with stupidity. They are not stupid, it seems that many times they are innocent. How? Have you ever seen a child eager in learning something new and with the same enthusiasm trying to use that new knowledge? Well, is like that. They try to learn constantly everything what is happening around them, not always but they do. Sometimes when they are a little bit drunk they can be a little bit too annoying, over-social-drama. They may start speaking nonstop about their journey and about what they do back home.
