Not so much these days......

"...these days" would be key, there. Decades of living as a more fully realized adult have a way of diminishing the theoretical and philosophical wonderings and prognostications in favor of some old rules and notions and beliefs, I guess. Sort of. Maybe. Yes.

Mr. Murph, That is the best description for old curmudgeon I have heard. The sum of ones experiences can somehow displace the reality in front of us? My children say I'm old fashioned cause I have no interest in things that fail to exist when you unplug their power source :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Indeed, a trap it is.

I like the mischievous (slyly teasing) look in that fellow's eyes. He seems a playful guy that's fun to be around.

This airlines operates out of South Africa with only 10 planes but is noted for its humor: KULULA AIRLINES
Kulula is a low-cost South-African airline that doesn't take itself too seriously. Check out their new livery!
And get a kick out of the comments at the end of the photos.
Notice the labeling on the planes.

WHAT A PITY KULULA DOESN'T FLY INTERNATIONALLY - WE SHOULD SUPPORT THEM IF ONLY FOR THEIR HUMOUR:
On a Kulula flight, (there is no assigned seating, you just sit where you want) passengers were apparently having a hard time choosing, when a flight attendant announced, "People, people, we're not picking out furniture here, find a seat and get in it!"

On another flight with a very "senior" flight attendant crew, the pilot said, "Ladies and gentlemen, we've reached cruising altitude and will be turning down the cabin lights. This is for your comfort and to enhance the appearance of your flight attendants."
On landing, the stewardess said, "Please be sure to take all of your belongings. If you're going to leave anything, please make sure it's something we'd like to have."

"There may be 50 ways to leave your lover, but there are only 4 ways out of this airplane."

"Thank you for flying Kulula. We hope you enjoyed giving us the business as much as we enjoyed taking you for a ride."

As the plane landed and was coming to a stop at Durban Airport, a lone voice came over the loudspeaker: "Whoa, big fella. WHOA!"

After a particularly rough landing during thunderstorms in the Karoo, a flight attendant on a flight announced, "Please take care when opening the overhead compartments because, after a landing like that, sure as heck everything has shifted."

From a Kulula employee:
"Welcome aboard Kulula 271 to Port Elizabeth. To operate your seat belt, insert the metal tab into the buckle, and pull tight. It works just like every other seat belt; and, if you don't know how to operate one, you probably shouldn't be out in public unsupervised."
"In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, masks will descend from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and pull it over your face. If you have a small child travelling with you, secure your mask before assisting with theirs. If you are traveling with more than one small child, pick your favourite."

"Weather at our destination is 50 degrees with some broken clouds, but we'll try to have them fixed before we arrive. Thank you, and remember, nobody loves you, or your money, more than Kulula Airlines."

"Your seat cushions can be used for flotation; and in the event of an emergency water landing, please paddle to shore and take them with our compliments."

"As you exit the plane, make sure to gather all of your belongings. Anything left behind will be distributed evenly among the flight attendants. Please do not leave children or spouses."

And from the pilot during his welcome message:
"Kulula Airlines is pleased to announce that we have some of the best flight attendants in the industry.
Unfortunately, none of them are on this flight!"

Heard on Kulula 2 55 just after a very hard landing in Cape Town:
The flight attendant came on the intercom and said, "That was quite a bump and I know what y'all are thinking. I'm here to tell you it wasn't the airline's fault, it wasn't the pilot's fault, it wasn't the flight attendant's fault, it was the asphalt."

Overheard on a Kulula flight into Cape Town, on a particularly windy and bumpy day: During the final approach, the Captain really had to fight it. After an extremely hard landing, the Flight Attendant said,
"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to The Mother City. Please remain in your seats with your seat belts fastened while the Captain taxis what's left of our airplane to the gate!"

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

An airline pilot wrote that on this particular flight he had hammered his ship into the runway really hard. The airline had a policy which required the first officer to stand at the door while the passengers exited, smile, and give them a "Thanks for flying our airline". He said that, in light of his bad landing, he had a hard time looking the passengers in the eye, thinking that someone would have a smart comment. Finally everyone had got off except for a little old lady walking with a cane. She said, "Sir, do you mind if I ask you a question?" "Why, no Ma'am," said the pilot. "What is it?" The little old lady said, "Did we land, or were we shot down?"

I have heard very similar overhead announcements when flying Southwest Airlines.

Particularly liked the one about the pool being closed due to the flight being so short..........and the "whoa, big fella" I heard on a flight on SW out of BWI many years ago.

I do remember taking off from a mountain airport in Colorado where the pilot just prior to take-off noted that it would be a rough ride and drop off initially and that we might want to reach forward and locate that sickness bag in the pocket on back of seat in front of you......in a remarkably good rendition of John Wayne: "And, you might want to make sure you don't have a used one...."

Loved the Kululu post! Especially where of all the great flight attendants, none of them were on board that flight!

Thank you,
