I'm glad you guys enjoyed it! Here's some good ones...
All too rarely, airline flight attendants make an effort to make the in flight "safety lecture" and announcements a bit more entertaining. Here are some real (supposedly) examples that have been heard or reported...
On a Southwest flight (SW has 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 a Continental 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 flight attendant said,"Please be sure to take all of your belongings. If you leave anything, please make sure it's something we'd like to have."
"There are 50 ways to leave your lover but only 4 ways out of this aircraft."
"Thank you for flying Delta Business Express. 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 Ronald Reagan, a lone voice came over the loudspeaker, "Whoa, big fella, WHOA!'
After a particularly rough landing during thunderstorms in Memphis, Tn. a flight attendant on a Northwest flight announced, "please take care when opening the overhead compartments because after a landing like that sure as hell everything has shifted".
From a Southwest Airlines employee: "Welcome aboard Southwest Flight 245 to Tampa...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 a mask and pull it over your face. If you have a small child traveling with you, secure your mask before assisting with theirs. If you are traveling with more than one small child pick your favorite."
Weather at our destination is 50 degrees (F) 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 Southwest 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 your belongings. Anything left behind will be distributed evenly among the flight attendants. Please do not leave children or spouses...except for that gentleman over there."
And from the pilot during his welcome message: "Delta Airlines is pleased to have some of the best flight attendants in the industry. Unfortunately, none of them are on this flight."
