Perhaps they can conduct training on the beach and save on renting a training room at LAX.
They could also provide training at Venice Beach, CA, but the "GA students" might get distracted by all the freaks running around. To the OP: Was this GA flying in Y to KOA on your flt? If not, it was a joke.
If she was on the flight tell her Mahalo. Surfs up, dude!

This is most likely what was the case (a play on words as you say). Often times we use expressions such has "holding a seat in my pocket" meaning holding it aside till the very last minute. No shenanagins such as giving it to the wrong person but just a case of holding it for that last-second runner (are they going to make it ?, and if not, cutting the seat loose at the cut-off time to the next person who is supposed to get it).
