The Tinkler
You know how crammed it can get if you're flying economy and you get an aisle seat next to a tinkler. Those are travelers who want a window seat every time they travel; these species seem to have a really tiny bladder and need to pee every half an hour.

One cabin luggage is not enough. There may be a purse, a backpack, handbag. As they stuff and cram the luggage in the compartment; people wonder if they have entire household as luggage.
