During pre-flight of a DTW-MCO, the FA repeated many times about there being turbulence on the way down (probably to pre-calm fears). Yet at about the tenth announcement, someone young shouted "cool!".

Teenage sister in the ICU recovering from a ruptured spleen a few days before a scheduled trip to Australia: "Doctor, will I still be able to go to Australia?"
Doctor: "Yes, it shouldn't be a problem."
Teenage sister: "Can you tell my parents I have to fly business class?"
Doctor: "Yes, it shouldn't be a problem."

When flying into our little airport on the Oregon Coast, in a little turboprop, we can have some pretty impressive turbulence. When the adults are gripping their armrests and getting a little pale, my children have been known to exclaim "Whee!"

Followed by "do it again!"? That darned higher-faster generation.

This morning my 5 year old says to me, "Mommy, I like police officers but I like the ones at the airport the best."
I suspect that will change when she stops getting stickers and high fives as she goes through the metal detector.

7 year old: "It's my birthday today.. I'm seven!"
Me : "That's great!! Happy Birthday!"
7 year old: "How old are you?"
Me: "How old do you think I am?"
7 year old: Screws face up in concentration... "A hundred?"

Alitalia flight from Milan to Buenos Aires, way too many years ago. Middle of night, everybody is sleeping. The plane hits a really big bump, and there is the sensation of dropping for a split second. The six year old in the row in front of me pierces the silence: "WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!"

3 year old has made 4 ORD-ICN roundtrips, always on KE. Somehow we've always referred to the KE flight attendants as "The Nice Ladies." Those who've flown KE know how the cabin crew goes out of its way to be nice to kids, so he has developed an affinity. He recognizes their uniforms and will point them out in the terminals (he also recognizes KE's livery and points out their planes).
Anyway, between trips 3 and 4 on KE, we flew UA to Denver, his first non-KE flight. We get on the plane, get settled in our seats and one of the UA flight attendants walks past.
My son (sounding disappointed): "These aren't The Nice Ladies."

And a quote:
MicroDUF: Dad, I want to watch TV all day. Can we fly somewhere?

The KE flight leaves 1300ish and arrives at 1700ish.
