Flight Attendant: “Yo!”
Passenger: “Where is ‘7-D’? Ah, here it is.
Ah, here’s my seat.”
Flight Attendant: “Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Yo Airlines, where safety is our top priority.
First off, please make sure your seat belt is securely fastened at all times, even if the seat belt sign is off, because safety is our top priority.
Also, please be sure that all of your electronic devices are put on airplane mode, because you know what could happen if it wasn’t?
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
However, safety is our top priority.
And finally, if the cabin pressure drops, we’ll provide oxygen masks, so that you can breathe more comfortably.
Would you like to try, sir!?! Give it a try!
Passenger: “Uh, ma’am? I’m not comfortable sitting here anymore. Can I move?”
Flight Attendant: “You imbecile! Stay there.
Oh, and by the way, this flight is going to Los Angeles, California.”
Passenger: “Uh, ma’am. I’m supposed to be going to New York.”
Flight Attendant: “Um, I really hate to tell you this, sir, we’re already in the sky.
Passenger: “Wait. No, what? What? I just got here.”
A few minutes later . . .
Flight Attendant: “Excuse me sir, would you like anything?
Passenger: “Yeah, sure. I’ll have some water.”
Flight Attendant: “All right.”
Captain: “Ding. This is the captain. We’re about to hit some turbulence. So please fasten your seat belts.”
Flight Attendant: “Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!! Whoa!!! Whoa!!!”
Passenger: “Ugh! It’s all over me! Can I have a towel?”
Flight Attendant: “I’m so sorry, sir, but we can only give towels to those who are in business class.”
Passenger: “Oh, yeah. You only give to first class. [Whining].
Another few minutes later . . .
Captain: “This is the captain. Flight attendants, please get the cabin ready for landing.”
Passenger: “Excuse me ma’am. Uh, can I use the restroom?”
Flight Attendant: “Oh, I’m sorry sir, but the pilot just said we’re about to land. So you’ll have to wait.”
Passenger: “Uh, well, ma’am, if I don’t go now, I’m going to pee my pants.”
Flight Attendant: “Uh, it looks like you already did, so —“
Passenger: “The pilot says we’re landing in a little bit, so can I go just right now?”
Flight Attendant: “Well this flight attendant says you can’t.”
Passenger: “Ma’am, I’m begging you. Please let me go.”
Flight Attendant: “You CAN’T!”
Passenger: “Why, ma’am? Why? Why? Why can I not go?”
Flight Attendant: “Because I have to pee first. Ugh!”
And by the way, we’ve landed.”
Passenger: “What?”
Flight Attendant: “Ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much for joining us today on Yo Airlines. And I hope to see you again soon.”
