Snappy comeback
I like "I'm dating a girl who works at the airport snack bar. I told her I'd come see her when I had a chance."
I think if you try to slink by without being noticed, you're probably more noticeable and subject to a closer look.
Talk about being embarassed, back in the good old days when non-rev's had a certain dress code to adhere to, I was flying out of Cancun. I spotted a couple, he was sporting a white shirt WITH necktie, and she had a nice dress on wearing hose. And it is 85 degress in the shade. I couldn't help myself - I just had to ask - so I did - I asked if they worked for the airline. They returned a puzzled look to my query, then the lightbulb went on, and she replied they were travel agents. Talking about looking out of place - and you think I'm embarassed?
