Airline Stories

looks like Blue Toffee has given us a new subject thanks BT
I once opened a yoghurt [theirs] during a long haul flight meal and as the top came off it exploded went up in the air and landed on the gent in the row behind, on his head, read in the paper some months later they had stopped serving yogs for the same problem.
Best story... I lived in Dubai and all the expat kids used to go to & fro to UK boarding schools, because they were mostly excited that term was over and they were going to their parents they played havoc on the planes so some bright spark at Gulf Air [ before the days of Emirates Airline] decided to present each little cherub with a full tin of Quality Street to keep them all quiet, but unaccompanied kids board first and some had demolished the whole tin before take off, you can imagine how many sick bags were needed and the chaos it caused.

Not quite the same, but I remember being on a train with ex-OH, having a cup of coffee, with those infuriating little cartons of milk. The milk wouldn't open so ex-OH tugged the lid - it shot off and sprayed all over the bloke opposite... :-(

On my own on a fight to the U.S. I was seated between a couple - one wanted the window seat and one wanted the aisle seat. They bickered from the moment they were on the plane. When they meals came, they both turned on me for eating meat as they were vegans. I asked to be moved and was seated next to a man who obviously thought I had been seated next to him because I fancied him. He groped my thigh within a minute of me sitting down. I asked to be moved again and I was seated next to a drunk. I had to endure hours of his drunken ramblings and just before we landed he threw up on me.

lol...probably

On the return flight a loaded gun was found in the toilet and the plane diverted to Prestwick where we were made to get off the plane and herded into a confined space like sheep. Everyone had to be strip searched - it took hours.

And after they've finished their sweets they spend the rest of the flight reclining their seat to and fro to annoy the passengers behind, and whilst
doing that constantly kick the passenger in front!
