The holidays are just around the corner, and the only thing separating me from jet setting with my family to wine country, USA, are my three finals. Before I can get my hands on an In-N-Out, animal-style burger, I’ll be co-traveling with 98 million of my closest friends. I'm pretty grateful for the variety of people in this world, bad smelling, personal space-ignoring, celebrity status-thinking and all. Although there are millions of unique individual human beings, I’ve categorized them all into the eight types of people you encounter while traveling during the holidays. Nothing says happy holidays like people watching these types in their natural habitats.

1. Let's call them type A.

A for annoying. Their way or the highway. Whether they're right or wrong with making plans for travel, these people insist on always being right. You've told them 30 times that your flight leaves from terminal A, but they insist that you must go through terminal B "just in case." Did you remember their alphabetized and color-coordinated packing list?

2. The sleeper.

These are the people who provide zero assistance during the traveling process. The hum of the plane taking off, the inconsistent bumps on Route 66, the peaceful rain shower at a lodge, you name it. These sounds will rock these ones to sleep. They'll wake up for food, photo opportunities...and that about covers it.

3. The germ freak.

Did you know Ebola was still a thing? Because they know, and they'll sanitize your hands until they crack. Don’t forget to sing your ABCs while you scrub your hands.

4. The "what's a personal bubble?" guy.

Hey bro, I'm really all about giving everyone a seat before we board the plane, but I'm going to have to ask you to refrain from falling asleep on my shoulder. But I guess I can sleep better on the plane knowing that my shoulder could provide you such comfort.

5. The bag lady.

I’m certain there is a direct correlation between the number of bags she’s carrying and the amount of times you’ll get hit in the face. She's got her Vera Bradley bag from the '80s, Dooney & Burke from the '90s, and even one of those Capri Sun purses. Have fun properly stowing those in the overhead compartments.

6. The Z-list celebrity.

Wait, what do you think your credentials are?

7. The B.O.

You’ll definitely smell this one before you see them. Would it hurt you to shower before you grace us with your stench on this four-hour, packed plane ride? Seriously, I can recommend some floral, ocean breeze, or clean linen soap. Maybe you and the germ freak could get together and make some magic happen?

8. The ever-popular crying baby.

This baby wants to make sure your noise-canceling Beats by Dres are working to their full potential. Find that baby a pacifier for some A+ parenting. Sincerely, a full flight.
