I wasn’t witty enough to deal with this spectacularly rude person myself but I witnessed it a JFK airport when there was a major foul-up caused by snowy weather.

There was a long queue of passengers trying to re-schedule to their flights, when a deeply unpleasant man (the “PRAT”) barged to the front and insisted that the desk staff address his requirements first.

The woman behind the desk looked him in the eye and explained to the PRAT that he had to get in line and she would do everything she could to help him out she he is turn came. The PRAT then began to rant “…do you know who I am…”. Without pausing a moment, the woman picked up the telephone connected to the Airport loudspeaker system and said “….there is a man at the Delta Ticket desk who doesn’t know who he is. Is there someone in the airport who can help him…”. The PRAT then stormed off yelling “…F—- you…” to which the woman said that he would have to get in line to do that too.
