The other day a friend arrived in Houston on a Southwest flight and the flight attendant announced,"We'd like to welcome you to Hawaii but we can't since we're in Houston."
:-)
Flight attendants is now the new job to have for aspiring stand-up comedians. Captive audience anyway.
Air Marshall, can you deal with that heckler....?
I was on one last year and the guy was doing everything in Southparks Mr. mackey voice. Was pretty good but only half the plane got it.
Ours used a rubber chicken to demonstrate the oxygen mask instructions. :)
I bet she would talk your head off on a date...that is if she had any air left...
She missed her true calling as an auctioneer ...: )
I like Southwest.
Remember that time a SWA attendant said prior to takeoff: “Eenie Meenie Miney Mo. Take a seat, cause we gotta go.”?
She got in trouble. Fired I think.

I wonder who will be the first passenger to sue because they couldn’t get the quarters into the oxygen mask on time to prevent asphyxiation. :-)
I was flying S.W. and a young lady choked on something. Her seat mate dislodged her airway and the young lady was understandably upset and crying. The flight attendants lead her to the back of the plane and plied her with shots of tequila. I informed the crew that i was choking as well and got my free shot. Yes. S.W. has the very best customer focused flight crews in the business!
I think it’s hilarious how they make the safety instructions so funny.
“If you’re sitting next to a child, or someone who just acts like a child...” was always one of my faves.
Back in the days when flying wasn’t so much of a hassle (pre-9/11), I flew Southwest a lot. Somewhere I have a file of there best announcements. One I particularly recall when talking about the oxygen masks was:
“After you have put on your mask, please assist and children or anyone acting like children with their mask”
Flying is NOT fun.
I get on the jet, stow my one roll-on and briefcase, sit down, shut-up, I don’t talk to anyone and I don’t want them to talk to me. And hey, Stewardess, flying is a major pain so don’t try a song-and-dance like we are having a party. . .we are not.
Too many flights for too many years, too many chatty passengers that are all a-gush over flying to visit Aunt Sally. . .and too many stewardesses treating everyone who travels, even us business types in First Class domestic and Business international, as the cause of their tired feet and that fact they are old and were never able to fully secure that pilot up front.
Harrumpfh.
Was a big Southwest fan for many years until they messed with the boarding process and changed the planes they use for cross country travel.
Flew them last month from BWI to LAX on new plane, had A1 boarding ticket, got horrible seat...awful.
No more SWA for me when I fly to CA...no way.
I heard it on Sean today. What a riot she was. I got to see it now.

I was on a SW flight leaving Vegas and almost everyone on board has just come from a Nascar race so they were in a very good mood. As the flight was climbing out at a steep angle, the flight attendant started pushing the peanuts down the isle. With a good push at climb attitude they would make it from the front to pretty far back of the plane. If you wanted one would just stick out your hand to grab one.
It was pretty funny.
That should get people’s attention.
From what I could understand, she WAS funny.......unfortunately she talked too fast.
Best flight for me was thru Tulsa to Houston. Same sort
of happy SW flight attendant. Late night flight with drinks/ciggs and a friendly poker game back in the last 3 or 4 rows.
