Where is my weather? I have to ask for it. And it gets met with "oh, you need weather?" Come on guys, we need weather, everytime. Why is that so difficult?
For me, it's the exact opposite! Since about two years we use EFBs exclusively, so whenever a handling agent hands me 100 pages of weather&notams I really don't know what to do about them. Probably they will show up on the bill as 50 Euros for "garbage" half an hour later...

Pet hate? Being ripped off - just like everybody else I suppose. Recently we had 10 Euros on the bill for a phone call to put us up at the airport hotel. It's so close to their office they could have shouted!

Being forgotten by the handling agent is also a no-go: When you have to call them by phone when nobody is coming to pick-up the passengers after the marshaller has parked you. The more expensive the handling, the more often this happens.
