Airplane Meal - True Story (supposedly)
Airborne approximately thirty minutes on an outbound evening flight from Glasgow, the lead flight attendant for the cabin crew nervously made the following painful announcement:
"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm so very sorry but it appears that there was a terrible mix-up by our airport catering service one minute prior to takeoff. I don't know how this has happened but we have 103 passengers on board and, unfortunately, only 40 dinner meals. I truly apologize for this mistake and inconvenience."
When passengers' muttering had died down, she continued, "Anyone who is kind enough to give up their meal so that someone else can eat will receive free, unlimited drinks for the duration of our 5 hour flight."

Her next announcement came 90 minutes later, "If anyone would like to change their minds, we still have 40 dinners available."

Now that's a flight I would like to have been on. :thumbup: :thumbup: I was flying from Denver to Atlanta years ago and we had not been in air long and they ran out of beer. I asked the flight attendant if she could talk to the pilot and since we over Kansas if he could land on the interstate near a ramp with a convenience store at the exit so I could buy some beer. Hell it was flat for hundreds of miles. Shouldn't have been a problem.
