On a flight from LAX to SJC, I ended up being separated from the group I was traveling with. It was my first time flying with a group, and I forgot to mention that we all needed to be at the gate together. As a result, everyone arrived at the gate individually.

Not sure about worst (although there was a time on Thai Airlines where we seemed to drop about 3,000 metres in a matter of seconds which really put the cat amongst the pigeons) but best flight was definitely a red eye from Oman to London.

Not to be a downer but…

I don’t see a connection…yet. It’s just that some places are just sick and tired of idiot tourists causing problems. And, it’s not just Japan.
