Does anyone know the context of this “skit” that is blowing up on twitter?

I knew this was fake when those "flight attendants" served a PDB, and champagne none the less.

Interesting way to raise money for charity. Is this the best they could come up with?

And seriously, neon orange shoes?

Assuming that the supposed director in attendance had not had the opportunity to pre-screen the skit, perhaps jumping in and stopping the skit might have been the only course of action?

My two cents, whether sanctioned or not, the AAdvantage logo is prominently displayed. That is a real problem that AA has to address, paricupartic difficult since those in the audience were CK and EXP. I don't envy public relations' job with this one

I for one am glad that the sexist practice of having young, attractive FAs service me in first class has become a shameful thing of the past.
