Air India en Indian Airlines, geen grap!

"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. This is your Captain Sharma welcoming you on board of AIR INDIA. We apologize for the 4-day delay in taking off. It was due to bad weather and some overtime I had to put in at the bakery.

This is flight 126 to Mumbai. Landing in Mumabi is not guaranteed, but we will end up somewhere in the East. If luck is in our favour, we may even be landing on your village! ...

..We regret to inform you, that today's in-flight movie will not be shown as we forgot to record it from the television. But for our movie - buffs, we will be flying right next to Indian Airlines, where their movie will be visible from the right side of the cabin window..

..Kindly be seated, keep your seat in an upright position for take off and fasten your seat belt.

For those of you who cannot find a seat belt, kindly fasten your own belt to the arm of your seat ..... and for those who cannot find a seat, do not hesitate to get in touch with a stewardess who will explain how to fasten yourself to your suitcase." ENJOY AIR INDIA (link)
