Thick passenger comments
AR1 - great, just great!
iain - I disagree, it's not a thick passenger comment, it's what is technically known as an 'ar$eh8le passenger comment'. I often think there should be an IQ test before they let some people on a plane.

"... the thick folks I knew at school now work as airline cabin crew..."
Did you ever wonder who got your allocation of 'class' when it was being handed out?

hey Harrogate which airline knocked your cabin crew application back ? getting back on topic a colleague had the great Muhhamed Ali on board many years ago, coming into land in SYD the seat belt sign illuminated but Ali was fast asleep . My friend ( female flight attendant) woke him gently and whispered in his ear " Mr Ali we are coming in to land i need you to put your seat belt on" He replied " Superman dont need no seat belt" She retorted " yes well Superman don't need no aeroplane either". He quickly did his seat belt up.

LETSFLY post very funny!!!!! Typical pax, they know everything!!! (they think)
What about having past through the cabin with a bar service, asked all pax if they want something to drink, both the way out and the way back to the galley, and when everything as been put away, ding (call bell), a pax that will like something to drink. Didn't he wanted it 2 min ago?????
When we do the tea and coffee service, we have both pots on top of cart. So we ask, "Tea or Coffee?" And pax sais "Yes" AAARRRRGGGGG!!!!!
I have a friend in Iberia, that told me a funy story that happend to her with a little boy on a flight. In Iberia they give children like a winegum lolypop. So she went to this boy, travelling with his father, and gave the sweet to him, he took it, and the father said: " what do you say?". The child answered "That I don't like it!!!!!!!!" and gave it back to her.

Also, when doing tea + coffee service in premium cabin,you ask if they would like milk and sugar,reply is no thanks, you give coffee and then they ask where is the milk?
You add the milk,then they ask for some sugardidn't they hear when we first ask them?!
Economy;would you like beef or chix? fish! Unfortunately sir,that is not one of the choices.It's either beef or chix,no other choice. Then they look at me as if I'm the dumb one?!
or when they open small closets looking for a toilet.....
and when they find the toilet they stare at it expecting it to just open for them when there is a big sign that says 'PUSH'. Or when there is a handle on that particular toilet and they ask how do I open this......probably the same way you open a door!
I'm sure we can all write a hilarious book about all these things...

Pax: (Pulls out HUGE bottle of cheapy salad cream).

Not always thick passenger comments
On a flight to the states last year I was sat next to a female passenger traveling with her son. They had requested vegetarian meals and the first meal service were given this. Later in the flight we all got a sarnie style pack-lunch box but all the meals were ham sarnies.
Her: I’m sorry I pre-booked vegetarian meals for my son and myself, do you have anything else?
CC: (gave the lady a funny look) it’s fine for you, its only ham.
She took it just to look polite she told me later. Perhaps the altitude was getting to him!

Ages ago, I was working for an airline, both charter and schedule. So when schedule we had a curtain to separate first clase, but we took it of when charter, and we just put it in an overhead locker.
One day disembarking a charter flight we realise this lady leaving the a/c with one of the curtains as a shawl. So we made her aware of it, and then she just said: " Oh I thought it was my shawl" but didn't even have one with her!!!! And Imagine the curtain, blue, with big letters in yellow saying Air Europa!!!! Lovely shawl

yesterday when we went out with the bar, i said "would you like any drinks or snacks from the bar"
lady said "yeah what you got?" (look in the mag!!!)
i listed everything until she stopped me with "what have you got for kids"
i said "pepsi, lemonade, ginger ale, fruit shoot, j20 .."
she said "have you got Fanta?"
No, (then listed the orange drinks we have)
"have you got sprite?"
"no the nearest to sprite is lemonade"
"is lemonade fizzy?"
i thought she was winding me up....doesnt everyone know what lemonade is....
my colleague said "what does she think we do when we're in the galley - sit handsqueezing lemons for people!!!"

Uh? What, I gagged in shock ( I know the fight was cheap love but theres no need for that I thought)
Chicken or P-A-A-H-S-T-A ; Oh PASTA!
I'll take the chicken. I reiterated the story to my colleagues, and some months later they also flew NWA, and burst out laughing when they were offered the same fare, they confirmed the misheard words were quite similar.
And finally.. A gag (an old one). Years ago I was flying BA DC10 (ex BCal) and after the meal the lady said 'Lick yours sir' - I was just reaching down, when she handed me a Baileys!
