Had a passenger cut me off trying to get in the airplane the other day. I was coming back into the jetway after a preflight, and this guy literally leaps in front of me so he can be through the aircraft door first. I just had to shake my head sadly. The passenger behind me said rather loudly, "I guess he thinks he can get to XXX first without you." All the other passengers started laughing and I could see the leaper's ears turning red, but he just continuted to bull his way onto the plane.

Explain deiicing fluid composition and procedures to the same people who believe in the contrail conspiracy theory? Their heads would explode.

That same passenger used the back of your chair to help get his lard ass out of his seat and launched your head every time.

That's why you stick your arm across the aisle and block them.

Maybe your mistaken, I understand tht during the pax announcement you will state you will get deiced to remove ice. But to physically go into the description of what its chemical compound is, cmon!
Lol. Exactly. And would somebody please tell the flight attendants that nobody cares where the crew is based.

I've always loved 'We like to be the first to welcome you to whatever city'...I'm thinking, wait, you were on the same tube as me. How can you be welcoming me?

Maybe it's something they're required to say in their announcements......

Its way better to just make up where you're based anyway. Sheboygan, WI is always a crowd pleaser, as is Ashtabula, Ohio and Loganville, Georgia.

But I never use Kalamazoo. That's the universal safe word.
