An award should go to the Virgin Airlines gate attendant in Sydney some week ago for being smart and funny , while making her point, when confronted with a passenger who probably deserved to fly as cargo.
A crowded Virgin flight was cancelled after Virgin's 767s had been withdrawn from service. A single attendant was re-booking a long line of inconvenienced travellers, suddenly an angry passenger pushed his way into the desk . He slapped his ticket down onto the counter and said, "I HAVE to be on this flight and it HAS to be FIRST CLASS"
The attendent replied, "I'm sorry sir. I'll be happy to try to help you, but I've got to help these paople first, and I'm sure we'll be able to work something out." The passenger was unimpressed. He asked loudly, so that the passengers behind him could hear, "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO I AM" Withont hesitating, the attended smiled and grabbed her public address microphone: "May I have your attention please , may I have your attention please," she began - her voice heard clearly throughtout the terminal. "We have a passenger here at gate 14 WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHO HE IS, If anyone can help him find his identity, please come to gate 14."
With the people behind him in line laughing hysterically, the man glared at the Virgin attendent, gritted his teeth and said, "F... You!" without flinching, she smiled and said, "I'm sorry sir, but you'll have to fly QANTAS for that service."
