Funniest things you’ve heard on a BA flight

While we’re waiting for lockdown to finish.... What is the funniest thing you’ve heard on board a BA flight?
What made me laugh out loud, was a little kid asking dad on the way to TFS..... while taxing from LGW furthest gate to the runway and almost getting to the runway.... ‘Are we there yet dad’? What’s yours?

Master Bisonrav proudly announcing to the F cabin on BA11 (Singapore return) that he'd had a "really big poo".

Similar to a kid I heard in Male airport lounge toilet saying to his mum ‘that was a really stinky one, eh mum’. I just love kids no nonsense, say it as it is, comments 🥰

The pilot via the public address system asking the only cabin crew member to go and check if the door was closed.

Comments about the long taxi at Schiphol spring to mind, can't remember the exact wording but talking about the long taxi to London City with a short hop across the water.

This is a good while ago, but about half an hour into a flight to LAS, the FO saw fit to remind everyone that this was a non-smoking flight and that anyone caught smoking would be asked to leave the aircraft immediately.

There must have been a mistake- I always sit in 1A, you will have to sit in 9f

Landing at Barbados a few years ago the arrival PA was particularly long and drawn out... to the point the FA was still spurting her spiel as we pulled on to stand. As soon as she paused to take a breath, (she still wasn't finished) one of the flight deck interrupted with "and if I can get a word in edgeways as we'd all like to get off, cabin crew doors to manual please"
