Most stupid request from a PAX..
 
OK.. whats yours?

Most idiotic.....

What kind of chicken is this beef?

Can you fix up some raison toast for my son? He didn't like the breakfast you gave him. (very unlikely to fufill this one on a 37min MEL-LST sector on a 717!)

"Which one is the gents toilet?"

Not really a request but a silly question all the same!
I work for a charter airline and im afriad we dont have seperate lavotories for males and females, (does any airline??) it would be nice though!:p

On a low fares flight

" Why are you sitting on your hands, are you scared off take off too?".......comment from a pax noticing the FA brace position. hehehe:D

just last night from a little girl sitting in J with her mum - "I'll have a non alcoholic cocktail thanks"
also got the "i'll have a choc milk" while doing the bar service. Are we a supermarket??? ;)

Okay, so I sit at the pointy end behind the locked door, but I couldn't resist one of these that one of my colleagues told me once.....

BA flight from USA. American pax keeps pressing the call button and demanding to know what sort of animal an 'Ooot' is. Eventually, the 3rd of 4th steward/ess figured out what the pax was talking about; the 'UHT' on the little milk pots on the tea trays.

Well, I liked it anyway :)

hot chock brock 3rd Apr 2002 18:02

Try this one for size.
On answering a call bell I was asked if the omelette served for brekkie contained eggs !

Iguanahead 3rd Apr 2002 21:35

I was asked by a gentleman if it was so cold outside when your up in the air why weren't there ice blocks groowing on the wings!:eek:

And the other all time classic " Where are we now?"

Now I know the correct thing to do is to call the flight deck and ask what country we are passing over below but after 14 years of this you just can't resist telling them " on a 747 35000 feet in the air!" and walking away.:p :D ;)

Back a few months ago when visitors were allowed to visit the flight deck to "see the Captain" i took a bloke in,the guy started asking all the normal questions-drone,drone!! And then said "What happens if i press that button?" The first officer promptly turned round and said "I smack you in the mouth!!!"

The pax left the F/D at that point.....

Of course you get stupid questions from all sides. We had an FA come up front and ask the FO "when was he going to qualify as a pilot"!!! :D

jayne 4th Apr 2002 04:27

"can you put my baby bottle in the microwave to heat it up"
" have you got Mr Dixon's home address?" I said "why?" Pax said " cos I'm going to send this s**t (food) to him and see if he'll eat it"?
"what's that town down there" (like I get a chance to look out the window)
"can I pleease go into the flight deck. You can handcuff me if you want"

SectorBabe 4th Apr 2002 11:47

Get this one sooooo often...

On boarding -
Pax "Is this Amsterdam?"
Me "No, Luton. But give us an hour, it will be Amsterdam"
:D :D

Can't resist it. Makes me chuckle each time..!!

RevMan2 4th Apr 2002 12:19

Not the stupidest question but a failry dumb answer

Q: "Red wine or white wine"
A: "Yes please"

Cart_tart 4th Apr 2002 13:03

I've had the same happen with tea and coffee. A couple of time's i've poured both into the cup to see what would happen - one didn't even notice, the other just laughed and politely asked me for another cup but with coffee only!

christep 4th Apr 2002 13:54

[aka HKGpax when Danny has the time to reestablish "handles"]

Well if they were HK Chinese this might have been what they intended. A mixture of tea and coffee is quite a common drink here (known as "yuen-yueng").

There may be a lesson there somewhere!

Another similar one is..

Me " Would you like anything from the bar?
Pax " Tea please"
Me " Would you like milk and sugar?"
Pax "No, thank you"

Arfter delivering the tea...
Pax " Can I get some milk?"
Me "..................................."( in my brain " Smile and be nice, this person helps towards my wages.....")

It was a quiet night, and several F/As came to the F/D to hang out. One girl asked the Cpt what the lights were that she could see below.
He answered, "Panama".
She asked in a very sweet little voice, "Panama is an island, isn't it?":confused:
He answered, "yes dear, that's why they made a canal, so they wouldn't have to go around":D

I'm sorry, it wasn't a pax, but it was an irresistible story to tell right now.

Not a stupid question, and probably apocryphal, but I pass on what a BA skipper told me recently:
Plane at cruising altitude, sunny day, everyone happy, little girl sends a note up to the flight deck:
"dear captain,
I just wanted to let you know how much I'm enjoying my first flight. Everyone's been so nice, lovely lunch with a hamburger and sweets and lots of coke, and the steward gave me a really nice goody bag with lots of interesting things in it.
I had a little sleep and then looked at the clouds and the land below, and started thinking about the great holiday we're going to have when we get there.
Yes, it's been a lovely flight, now please don't go and spoil it all by f?(&!ng up the landing.
Luv from cindy"
