How do you handle Dumba$$ hotel guests?

[Tejas-Jet]

I walk over to the offender's room in my boxer shorts and kindly tell them that we have to work the next day and PLEASE, please, please be quiet.

Please be careful leaving your room to discuss noise with someone you don't know.

Many a Pilot and FA have ended up with a beating for doing that. Call hotel security...that's their job.

 

[ExAF]

Check it

The only problem with the alarm trick though is that usually housekeeping simply just resets the alarm so the next occupant of the room (most likely a fellow crewmember from the same airline) may get an unnecessary awakening.

If they are airline crew and haven't learned to check their alarm clock (whether you use it or not) to make sure it won't unnecessarily wake you in the morning, then they need to learn that lesson. For most, it is usually "learned" on IOE or soon thereafter.

Who can I sue should this happen to me. What's a hotel beating worth these days in liability?

I had a room about 2 months ago next to the "Human Jack-hammer" and his off duty porn-star victim.

I couldn't get to sleep for about 2 hours. I never had a problem with that, just wanted to "high-five" the guy the next morning and get an autograph!

Man-code: know when to call the room, and when not to call!:beer:

Same thing happened to a fellow crew member. In the morning as he is leaving the "Human Jack-hammer" opens his door bends over to pick up the paper and the fellow crew member sees into the room. The "off duty porn-star victim" was another guy!

Nut Shot or no?

Do tell....

i like the penny jammed door or filling my trash can full of water in the tub, and leaning it against their door. The TV turned against the wall full blast as I leave in the morning usually works also.

 

[DrewBlows]

What about the poor passengers who planned there business trip or vacation around your planned departure in the AM?

Given the choice of their lives ending in a flaming ball of aluminum when the tired pilots make a fatal mistake or taking the next flight several hours later I think they will be happy with rested pilots.

 

[Tristar]

I walk over to the offender's room in my boxer shorts and kindly tell them that we have to work the next day and PLEASE, please, please be quiet. There is a great lobby downstairs for hooting and hollering.

I'd submit you'd make more of an impact wearing a thong, wingtips and socks with ankle garters, and a Kimber in a shoulder holster. Should also cover the receiving a beating hazard.

 

[BoeingBaller]

Tell the front desk and switch rooms.

 

[JettBoii]

I took my room service door tag; breakfast order. Checked almost every item and hung it on their door followed by removing their do not disturb sign. Dialed their room from the valet phone right before I caught the elevator. Oh...and I slammed the shoiiot out of my room door.

Sue your parents for raising an idiot.

 

[Amish RakeFight]

Sue your parents for raising an idiot.

They're deceased. So that's not possible, Navigatro.

Please explain how the penny jam thing is accomplished.

 

[CA1900]

Please explain how the penny jam thing is accomplished.

I'd assume it's by putting coins all around the door, between the doorframe and the door, to add so much pressure that you can't open the door from the inside.

That one strikes me as a really bad idea. If there's an actual hotel fire (I've been in one) and somebody's trapped in the room because of a prank, I'd expect some time in prison.

I'd go with the paper bag full of cheap shaving cream. Slide the top carefully under the door, and then jump on the bag. Splat!

 

[t-bone]

I had some noisy neighbors wake me up at 0200 when I had a 0330 lobby time planned...just before leaving my room I set up a 0400 wake-up call through the automated system (those don't get canceled out when checking out of the room). I also called from the lobby just for good measure.

I'll try the breakfast card trick next time....

 

[DH106]

FREE BREAKFAST!

Who cares if this is "cheap"... go down to the front desk, politely explain how the hotel didn't manage the noise problem, and ask for a free breakfast. It works like a charm 100% of the time, and it costs the hotel some cash. If enough crewmembers start doing this, the hotel will get the picture.

 

[Uncle Bunkle]

Are you old pussies f'ing kidding me? I never hear ANY noises outside my hotel room, ever. What the ******************** do you do, sleep on the floor by the front door? Grow up retards.

 

[scoreboardII]

step 1: call front desk.
step 2: repeat step 1, inform them step three is call to police.
step 3: call front desk ask them to connect you to local police.

I have never had to use step 3.

Closest I came to step 3 was at a Red Lion and security had the noise makers out on the street in 15 minutes, well done.

Step 4: call in fatigue if it stays bad.

Rule 1: Under no circumstances intervene or attempt conact with the offenders. I know of those who have been severely beaten, one loss of license. Thats not my job, my job is to go to sleep.

I like the alarm trick, have to remember that one.

Are you old pussies f'ing kidding me?

No, grow up, take responsibility.

 

[Newpilot2b]

Leave the TV cranked up at "O dark 30" in the morning when leaving the room.

 

[Alaska82]

Step one turn the TV speakers so they are facing the other room.
Step two turn on the news i like FOX.
step three Max volume.
Last time i did this i could hear the news when i was waiting on the elevator.
I am sure i pissed off a lot of people. I don't think i solved the problem but it was sure fun.

Not everyone drinks themselves into a coma like you do.

Every idea you have there is good, except the last, hope the next time someone slams the shoiiot out of the door, you're tryin to sleep jetboy!

Haven't ever had to use step 3 either.

 

[mesaserf]

Well how about you guys just stop staying in the same hotels as the Mesa crews.

Sheesh…

And Grandpa Bunkle… Not all of us can just shut off our hearing aids before going to bed so cut us some slack.


Just Kidding!

 

[flynryan15]

You can always take on of your coffee packets, open it up and pour the grinds inside their newspaper. When they open it the ******************** goes every where, including their face!

 

[Hung Start]

I have done the TV turn around thing. Easy.

One time, I was so aggravated, I got up and took the newspaper in the plastic bag off the doorknob. Took a good, coffee fueled dump in between the USA Today and the bag. Put said bag back on the doorknob.

They got all the news that was fit to print,, for sure.

I think Uncle Bunkle's writing the sequel to "A Beautiful Mind," using his vast vocabulary, including:
pussies
f'ing
retards
Preparing to Poo

[Skybus]

Ya that call in fatigue gig is really going to show um isn't it. Bet they will pipe down the next time.

 

[OPECJet]

What about the crews that get in around 12am, and feel the need to talk in the hallway about how hard the day was and how its going to suck in the morning, then they all proceed to slam the door

Check the sign in sheet on your way out of the hotel, then put mousetraps in their mailboxes when you get to their base.

Life-like insects, rodents, and assorted stuffed critters are good as well.
