Overheard on an American Airlines flight into Amarillo, Texas, on a particularly windy and bumpy day. During the final approach, the captain was really having to fight it. After an extremely hard landing, the flight attendant came on the PA and announced: "Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Amarillo. Please remain in your seats with your seatbelts fastened while Captain Kangaroo taxis what’s left of our airplane to the gate!"
From the pilot during his welcome message: "We are pleased to have some of the best flight attendants in the industry… Unfortunately none of them are on this flight…!”
Flight attendant announcement:
"As you exit the plane, please make sure to gather all of your belongings. Anything left behind will be distributed evenly among the flight attendants. Please do not leave children or spouses.”
"Also, the last one off the plane must clean it."
Flight attendant announcement: "Your seat cushions can be used for flotation and in the event of an emergency water landing, please take them with our compliments."
After landing: "Thank you for flying ****** Airlines. We hope you enjoyed giving us the business as much as we enjoyed taking you for a ride."
