I like BA's version where they state "please remove high heeled shoes before descending the slide"
...and Mesaba FAs who say "...your seat cusion is floatable" Nice word, floatable. Drives me crazy

How about as the plane is taxing to the gate upon landing you will occasionally hearˇKˇ¨We know you have a choice when flying, and on behalf of the 10,000 employees of XYZ airlines would like to thank you for flying with us today and hope to see you again on your next journey.ˇ¨

I was on a WN flight once where f/a said "we know you have a choice of airlines -- actually you don't, we're the only one flying this route -- but we appreciate your business anyway."

Actually - it is
You have boarded Northwest Airlines flight number XX with service from XX to XX. If that is not your destination or a connection point for you today, we suggest that you deplane the aircraft at this time.

The most recent flight attendant script from a first class Northwest flight i had.
You board the plane.
The FC attendant is hiding in the food nook.
You wait, wait, wait, wait, for them to offer you a drink.
After 15 minutes, you ask the coach attendant for a drink. She says "sure, just a minute".
The FC attendant is still hiding.
The coach attendant dissappears.
10 minutes later, the FC attendant pops out walks up to someone with a coat and asks for it, then hurries back before anyone can make eye contact.
The coach attendant reappears, I make a eye contact, she explains that she couldnt get me a drink because they were express boarding. She moves on before I can reply.
The coach and FC attendant stand in the food nook and yap until its time to do the official script.
My throat being parched and being throughly peeved for _buying_ a first class ticket, I ignore whatever it was they say. 45 minutes later, I finally get a beverage when the FC attendant comes out of hiding.
I've never seen a lousier FC attendant on a northwest flight, it wasnt even a meal flight so the guy (yes it was a guy) didnt have a good excuse for hiding in the food nook.

I think it is wrong to assume that the entire service has declined. I actually believe it has gotten better.

Does any one have a copy of the pre-flight (cell phones can be used til doors closed), safety (oxygen masks blah blah), in-flight (todays flight consists of many features including a magazine and no beverages), and landing scripts (keep your seatbelts on til the capt has turns off....) that the flight attendants say in the plane. We are working on a little skit and I would like to have actual ones as a guide. If you can post here that would be great!!
Thanks. :-)</font>

Don't forget the infamous WN script:
"Eeny meeny miny moe, pick a seat it's time to go."
Good for one free lawsuit per roundtrip.

The yseem to have dropped "Our service today has several features." Too embarrassed, I hope.[/B][/QUOTE]
LOL! It is still in our handbook, but you're right, most of us are too embarrassed to say it! Good to hear we're not the only ones who think it's dumb...
