I remember a passenger who wouldn't stop talking so I took his business card to get him to shut up. He was on a $25 upgrade. If only I had known then what I know now!:wink:
Funny thing is that my mom was a "stewardess" for American and that is how she met my dad.

My husband actually has the boarding pass from that flight. I don't remember the date but it was March 1991. NW was offering upgrades for full fare coach pax. He really thought he was something sitting up there. It was DTW-DCA.
I was going home SYD-HNL-LAX-DTW-DCA on day and he met me in DTW. He asked me to marry him in the F concourse just before I got on my flight. I ended up sitting in FC next to Alice Cooper. He graciously listened to me babble on and even showed interest in my new diamond.

So to clarify, you had previously meet your husband on a DTW-DCA flight, then, he proposed while you were transiting via DTW on a different flight/trip at some later date?
Did Alice Cooper compare jewerly with you? Next you are in PHX, he has his own evening talk show on KDKB.

hooverer...you have it right.
Now that I think about it, the flight I met him on was the same one I was taking to get home when he proposed. Weird.
Alice Cooper was very nice and didn't have a lot of jewelry on. I'm sorry to say though...not the most attractive man
