Funny Messages on South African Airline
When it comes to air travel we all know that safety in flying is important. Yet to be honest how many of you really pay attention to the in flight announcements? Dull, boring, seen it all before? What if you had funny flight attendants? What if the safety of flying was not a monotoneous drone yet made you squeal with laughter? Well some airlines have taken this on board. Most notably Southwest, but other US carriers, African, Asian and more. So I present to you below more than 100 flight attendant funny announcements:-
(Okay these include pilot announcements as well as funny airline attendants but I'm sure you'll like them.)

"If you are sitting next to a small child, or someone who is acting like a small child, please do us all a favour and put your own mask on first"
"The yellow button is your reading light. Please don't press the orange button unless you absolutely have to. The orange button is your ejector seat button."
