Amusing remarks I've heard from passengers

October 26th 2006 04:46
“Have we landed yet?” – from a passenger who didn’t notice that a few minutes had already passed since the plane touched ground, and was taxiing to the parking bay.

“This diabetic meal is diabolical”- from a passenger dissatisfied with his specially ordered meal.

“Does this chicken contain bird flu?”- from passengers questioning the health of the dead chicken on their plate.

“Do you have hamburgers for my kids? They don’t eat the food you’re serving”- from a stupid parent.

“This is the worst airline I’ve travelled on. I’m never flying with you again!”- from passengers on every 2nd flight. Care factor = zero!


“I have a really bad headache. I need to stay here”- from a passenger who tried to sneak up to business class. Nice try buddy!

“No offence, but aren’t you too short to be a stewardess?”- from a passenger who was curious as to how I could qualify as a hostie given my short stature. How rude!

“If I don’t make my connecting flight, it will be your fault”- from a passenger who complained about the delay in take-off which was due to poor weather conditions.

“Can you make that child shut up?”- from passengers on any flight where there are kids.

“Can I have a quick look in the cockpit?”- from a passenger, mid-flight, post 9/11.

“Could I please get a blindfold”- from a passenger who wanted eyeshades…or maybe he wanted handcuffs too!

“Do you want to work as my maid?”- from a very old passenger who I hope asked that question because he thought I would make a good personal carer.

“Is this flight going to Singapore?”- from a passenger, a few hours into the flight to Singapore. Bit too late to ask that isn’t it?

“I don’t mind if your boyfriend joins us for lunch”- from a passenger who just wouldn’t get the hint that I found him repulsive and definitely did not want to have lunch with him.


“Have you been to the fish market before? I’d like to take you there for lunch”- from a passenger to a fellow hostie.

Was the passenger blonde by any chance? haha!

Should've told him/her only the first half of the plane is going to Singapore. Passengers from rows 33 and back are stopping in Iraq or something!

Charles, I think the passenger was a guy! (not blond) Some passengers will believe anything you tell them- so your suggestion isn't really that silly. Hosties are gullible too- my friend made up a story about how one hotel we stayed at was haunted. It didn't take long for the rumour to circulate around the company.
