passenger nicknames

[wendi rose]

We have CFW's PBUs and BFG's on our flights. (have to work them out for yourselves) Anyone got any other good nicknames or avronyms for self loading freight?

We used to call our 1st Class PAX the PIGs (Pretty Important Guys).

In EK years ago we used to have a UPC and the winner would be given a bottle of Champagne!(even though most of them did not understand what the hell was going on!)...work it out...C means competition!

Many moons ago, they were known as "DF's" - "Delicate flowers" as they, particularly the frequent flyers, were tended to with the utmost care and fed copious amounts of sh***.
Isn't is simply marvellous that at least this industry maintains a level of consistency despite the food still having none....Ahhh happy days...** sigh ** :rolleyes:

there is many although "that c*** in 34c (or wherever) seems to be the most widely used <img src="wink.gif" border="0">

'The enemy are approaching' is a term i recall being most widely used as the first pax are making their way down the airbridge.. .Also 'the bucket and spade brigade' on those luvverly trips down to to Canaries in the winter!! :)

I understand that the good citiszens departing from Luton to their destinations in the Med are known as, The FLying Shell Suits.

May I point out that I only live near LTN and am not from it and have never flown charter from it! <img src="eek.gif" border="0">

[Fox_4]

It was 34A, phew. Escaped the wrath!

Heehee we also have CFW's!!

For cuties we call them BOB (Best On Board) and those Frequent Flyers that were a tad on the trying side were affectionately known as Frequent Whingers.

very funny :-)

[Tankie]

A nickname used for some obvious pax we use is 'Britvics'.

Just imagine holding a small can of tomato juice in your hand and giving it a shake. then recheck the position and motion of you hand and arm. An apt example of of some pax.. .

Enjoy life, it's the only one you've got.

Next time I sit in 34C I promise to be a "BOB" <img src="tongue.gif" border="0">

[Mr Pax]

34D is a much nicer thought! :) :) :)
