This is one way for an airline to build customer support: host a mid-flight, bikini-clad beauty pageant.
AFP reports that the Vietnamese carrier VietJet hosted a Hawaiian-themed dance contest to celebrate the airline's maiden flight between Ho Chi Minh City and the tourist hub of Nha Trang, but got in trouble -- not for the parade of scantily-clad women -- but for making the mistake of not first gaining permission by the Civil Aviation Administration of Vietnam.
The airline "violated local aviation regulations" by organizing "an unapproved show on a flight," Nguyen Trong Thang, chief inspector of the Civil Aviation Administration of Vietnam said.
The low-cost carrier has been fined $1000 for hosting the mid-flight contest.
The five women who participated in the beauty contest performed a three-minute dance on a Aug. 3 flight while passengers recorded the show on camera phones and later posted clips online, AFP reports.

On our airlines we would have to view tubby homosexuals with attitudes wearing grape-smugglers.

I so used to like to fly in the 60's and 70's.
I knew a guy who came home with a Vietnamese wife. She’s much older now but still very cute—and she owns a good deal of north San Diego County. They’re still very happily married and are great-grand parents.

Yea, I’ve always had a weakness for women from that part of the world. I know others too that did the same - you get a REAL wife, rather than an angry feminist with a chip on her shoulder.
They so miserably exploited.
30 posts and nary a mention of floatation devices?
Same here. Asian women are cute. Me want one long time.
When the pilot announced an on-time arrival, the passengers protested.

I was part of a class that flew to Yuma, AZ., on various flights, last fall and an individual recalled his flight experience.
He said that one of the above described flight attendances was coughing without covering her mouth and when preparing food, she stooped to retrieve a tray for heating and her butt crack was showing where upon she reached back and scratched it and proceeded to continue preparing food without cleaning her hands.
I fail to see what the problem is...
ROFL
They like bananas!
Heck with that! Hire me as their TSA agent.
Money well spent.
