Not The Usual Safety Announcement
Published Jan 01, 1900
Like many of my fellow travelers, I settled into my seat on a commuter flight and ignored the usual safety announcement given by the flight attendant.
But along with the other passengers in the cabin, I quickly perked up when the attendant said, "Good afternoon. My name is John, and the other flight attendants are my fiancee, Beth, and my former wife, Diane."
John smiled at us. "Now that I have your attention," he continued, "please listen to these safety instructions."
