Grateful pax. after being allowed to sit on flt. deck for landing -- looonng before 9/11 - - turned up next day at the crew hotel with stretch limo. and chauffeur, took the crew on a day trip around New England - in the fall.
Mexican pax. thrust his way on to the flt. deck at disembarkation, insisted that I accept a full, unopened bottle of Tequila ( complete with drowned insect inside ). Cost me a fortune to London Customs 30 mins later !
