There's a certain amount of dread that comes with sitting next to a stranger on an airplane. After all, you're going to be stuck next to this person in close quarters for what's possibly a lengthy amount of time. The last thing you need is to be seated next to a Chatty Charlie.

You know Charlie. He's the guy who talks your ear off during the flight, and by the end of your trip you can basically write his life story. Chatty Charlie is just one of the many travelers on Expedia's list of most annoying people on a plane. But rather than tell you about Charlie and company, Jimmy Kimmel had Sir Patrick Stewart act out five aggravating air travelers on Tuesday's episode of "Jimmy Kimmel Live."

And man, Patrick Stewart nailed them all, from the Stinky Snacker to the Seat Climber to the dreaded Landing Clapper with his charming British accent. The worst by far is the Seat Kicker, that person seated behind you who just can't stop (won't stop) kicking every time something funny happens in the movie he's watching.

Learn about all five types of annoying travelers in the video above, then dream of throwing each and every one of them out of the plane the next time you're stuck with them at a cruising altitude of 38,000 feet.
