8. Melted Than Frozen, That’s the Way of It
This isn’t a commercial flight story but a military one instead, yet it’s no less groan-worthy in sympathy for the passenger. The sudden fluctuations in temperature sound like a lovely form of whiplash and make us appreciate even the tightest seats on a plane that is normally at least a little more comfortable.

Nothing fun about feeling like you’re melting, only for that exact sweat that was supposed to cool you off to be turned against you when the temperature suddenly drops. We’re not built for this, dangit. I was trying to cool off; now I have hypothermia!
