All too rarely, airline
attendants make an effort to make the in-flight "safety lecture", and their
other announcements a bit more entertaining.
Here are some real examples
that have been heard or
reported:
1. On a Continental Flight with
a very "senior" flight attendant
crew, the pilot said, "Ladies and
gentlemen, we've reached
cruising altitude and will be turning down the
cabin lights. This is for
your comfort, and to enhance the appearance of
your flight
attendants."
2. On landing the stewardess said, "There
may be 50 ways to leave
your lover, but there are only 4 ways out off
this airplane."
3. As the plane landed and was coming to a stop at
Washington
National, a lone voice came over the loudspeaker: "Whoa, big
fella.
WHOA!"
4. After a particularly rough landing during
thunderstorms in
Memphis, a flight attendant on a Northwest flight
announced, "Please
take care when opening the overhead compartments
because, after a
landing like that, sure as hell everything has
shifted."
5. "In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, masks
will
descend from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and
pull
it over your face. If you have a small child traveling with
you,
secure your mask before assisting with theirs. If you are traveling
with
more than one small child, pick your favorite."
