People who don't wear deirdorant or bathe.
Judge lest ye be judged...mystifyny said:How about having the elevator stop and the people getting in are going up or down one deck.
Or getting in the elevator and someone pushed all the buttons.
Adults that have no problem trampling over the kids to get to something on the buffet line.
Adults that aren't polite enough to let kids they don't know stand in front of them so the kids can see the show too
Adults that don't say " thank you" to the kids that are polite enough to hold the door open for them
Adults that feel it's ok to let their kids hog something while other kids are waiting
Obviously,I have a pattern . Adults tend to do more to make me annoyed than kids do!

People being rude/mean to crew.
Dining staff pressuring you to find their service "excellent"
Adults who forget they are parents when they go on a cruise.
Chair hogs on the pool deck.
People who wear sweats/ pajama type wear to dinner.
Adults who push their children to the front of character lines.
Children on adults shoulders during deck parties.
People who run through the hallways at night or talk loudly in hallways at night.
And biggest pet peeve: People who take chairs and move them in front of you on Castaway Cay. I hate it when people create their own new first row! Like how rude to plop your butt right in front of me! Sorry you didn't get a front row seat, but I got here early and made an effort so you need to sit in the established second row!
I guess being on vacation I don't let any of these things bother me. I have learned a long time ago, don't sweat the small stuff....makes my vacation more enjoyable. We all have our little quirks.
And omg heck yes on the iPad thing. Not only is it obnoxious, and obstructive to others around them, but people look ridiculous holding it up to take pictures. It's like they're holding up a cookie sheet.
I understand how frustrating the hand sanitizer can be. But to have so many people in such close quarters, it is completely necessary. Not everyone hand washes. I can control this in my home environment but not onboard a vessel carrying a thousands of germ carrying Petri dishes.
It gives me piece of mind.
Arrived early, our kids and about 4 others were the only ones on the pool deck. For parades we always arrived early to be on the curb since my daughter is in a wheel chair. Most times people are polite, many times we've had entire families walk in front of us and stand. I agree if your late you get what you get, or wait for next time. Believe me it frustrates us when entire families take advantage of handicapped viewing areas. One of us stays with my daughter and the rest of us find somewhere else to watch from.Funny that you should say that... Not specifically cruise ship (perhaps more park), but my pet peeve is when children, or their parents, believe that they are entitled to stand in front of people who have been staking out their spot for hours just because they're kids. Sure, it is nice if someone offers for a late coming child to stand in front of them or kneels down so that they can see, but I find it completely self-centered when a child just pushes their way to the front of a crowd (or their parents push their child in front of people). If you want a good spot for the parade, arrive early and wait for it. Just because someone is adult doesn't mean that they aren't deserving of a front row seat. As for the tripod, I occasionally shoot fireworks photos with a tripod in the parks. I stake out my spot sometimes hours beforehand (3 hours on NYE) and set my tripod up so that everyone around me understands that it will be there. It is not a surprise that I whip out ten minutes before the show starts. If you're a latecomer and are stuck behind my tripod, I am very sorry that you did not have a good view, but you could have prevented that from happening by arriving earlier.
My pet peeve is the iPAD camera, that thing is HUGE!
Since they installed the wave phones in every stateroom, the constant ringing during shows is really irritating. It seems every show or movie has a wave phone ringing every two minutes. We don't use them so I am not sure but shouldn't they have a vibrate feature like other mobile phones.
At home, we don't sanitize constantly because germs are necessary to build up your immune system.
But on a cruise where norovirus can run rampart.....please EVERYone use the hand sanitizer so MY family doesn't get sick from YOUR germs!!
