From BookLife by Publishers Weekly :

"Blewett identifies six major negative habits of fellow travelers—such as the Gate Lice, who crowd the waiting area while ignoring societal norms, or members of the Backpack Wrecking Crew, whose swinging backpacks knock into other passengers—and tackles how to respond to each one of them."

"The solutions come with an abundance of tongue-in-cheek humor...his sharp critiques will leave readers familiar with air travel chuckling."

"Blewett's debut offers more than just simple consolation for travel woes; nearly every chapter features stories from Blewett's own life that illustrate the twists and turns of his path to success."

"Rising corporate stars—or seasoned professionals facing a career stall out—will find his guidance an easy blend of witty banter and shrewd insight."
