@Natasha_Jay Ryanair once let me go on the plane with a wrong name on the boarding pass.
It was very early (6 AM or so) flight, so I wasn't very awake, and didn't notice this. Also all the 3-4 personnel checking my documents failed to notice it.
Only in the plane they started going through the documents for the second time, and then I looked at my boardin pass... I went to the crew and the situation was solved. We left like an hour late, so also the return flight was late.

I consider this my biggest achievement in modern aviation. I mean, who else has made two planes of 200 passengers to be late for more than an hour. Sorry about that, this crime happened in ~2009. To my defense, it was the mistake of the personnel, not me.
For years afterwards, I also got some mark on my travel documents, because I was constantly getting "randomly" checked by security. It stops feeling random if you get checked for all the flights you ever take.

On an internal flight in Brazil there was a guy standing in the aisle two rows ahead of us. Boarding finished and he's still there. Cabin staff took turns to come up to him. An hour passed. (This was a Brazilian airline. We'd boarded 45 mins after scheduled departure) After another 30 mins, they started asking for a volunteer to deplane and take a later flight. $200 and another 30 mins and a young woman stood up.
They had issued the same seat to two passengers.

@Natasha_Jay that's me in about four hours at the airport. Not flying Ryanair, though.

@Natasha_Jay I'm surprised they didn't charge you extra for "making a joke"

This happened to me on a flight from London to Helsinki. Except the door of the plane was already closed and the crew was in a hurry to depart or they’d have to switch crew. I ended up flying in the cockpit jump seat and chatting with the pilots. Clearly, this happened before you-know-what.

Ours was after that thing. We had six flights, all with LAN. Every one was delayed and or over-booked. The three flights from Sao Paulo all went from the same gate, always along with at least one other. Snafu always.
