Task3: Funny Flight Announcements

Script:

Occasionally, airline crews try to make their announcements entertaining. Here are some examples that have been reported. One pilot delivered this welcome message: "We are pleased to have some of the best flight attendants in the industry. Unfortunately none of them are on this flight."

One pilot said, "Folks, we have reached our cruising altitude now, so I'm going to switch the seatbelt sign off. Feel free to move about as you wish, but please stay inside the plane till we land. It's a bit cold outside, and if you walk on the wings, it affects the flight pattern."

A Southwest Airlines employee said, "In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, oxygen masks will descend 1 from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and pull it over your face. If you have small children traveling with you, secure your mask before assisting with theirs. If you are traveling with two small children, decide now which one you love more."

Another flight attendant's comment on a less than perfect landing goes like this: "We ask you to please remain seated as Captain Kangaroo bounces us to the terminal."                        

Still another attendant said, “As you exit the plane, please be sure to gather all of your belongings 2. Anything left behind will be distributed evenly among the flight attendants. Please do not leave children or spouses 3. Last one off the plane must clean it.”
