For every story of people finding their perfect match miles above the Earth’s surface, there are countless (and we do mean countless), stories of sexual assault and uncomfortable situations that can occur midflight.

Nevertheless, Coca-Cola and Delta Airlines decided to hand out napkins encouraging passengers to give out their phone numbers to fellow fliers after the complimentary drinks were served. Both Coca-Cola and Delta are now apologizing for this marketing mistake.

“Be a little old school. Write down your number and give it to your plane crush. You never know…” one napkin read.

“Because you’re on a plane full of interesting people and hey … you never know,” another read, leaving space to write down a name and number.

I was once a show hall production manager for a big Amway conference.

My counterpart did the stage for the performers (yes they had performers) in the building next door.

I went over there and saw part of the show. It was definitely professional singers and dancers.

Some sort of national conference. Long, long ago.

"...1 of 30 passengers from Hong Kong to Chicago..."


It is crazy how that sometimes (used) to happen. I guess they still need to move aircraft around.
Once took a huge jetliner from Edmonton to New York about thirty years ago with a half-dozen of us on the whole plane.
They simply invited us all up to First Class for ease and we still all had our own rows. Nice!

Giving your name and number to total strangers. What a great idea.

I do that a lot actually. If they end up being annoying, I can always block them and remove them from my contacts list.
