The five most stressful parts of a trip are:  Flight delays . . . getting sick or injured . . . dealing with huge crowds . . . airport security . . . and issues with the weight or size of your luggage.

The four most difficult people to travel with are:  Strangers . . . children . . . your boss . . . and extended family members.

And finally, the worst things that have happened to people on a trip are:  Having a flight cancelled . . . getting sick . . . someone stealing their wallet . . . and losing luggage.
