maximus......I know what you mean and I think I've seen him a few times.It's good to have pax like him though because they give us a good laugh in the galley repeating his inane drivel.
I'm a Plat. FF and travel to the US on a regular basis
Funny that just about all FF's say the same thing.....
"Do you realise who I am ?.....I'm a FF.....I fly with you all the time...I'm a personal friend of ....(substitute current board member or CEO) "
The hardest part is not to laugh when they give their inflated opinion of themselves and informing you that the business world and the planet in general would not be able to exist without them.
The other sure sign of most FF's which is relevant to this topic of bag weight limits is a coat cover that is so large you could fit a small car in them as well as the obligatory lap top,cabin bag weighing a ton and then asking/demanding the fin review before they've even got to their seat.
PAF... do you fly on tax payers money or do you actually work in the private sector now?
