• Looking for a Laugh? Fly Kulula

  I was busy working on my blogs today while my hubby was busy reading the news on his computer. I was trying to concentrate on work but was suddenly distracted by him. I heard him laughing out loud over and over again. It sounded like someone was tickling him. When I asked him what was going on, he pointed to his computer screen. He was not watching any videos, he was just reading an article on someone else’s blog. The article that he was reading was about an airline with a good sense of humor. When he told me about it, it did not ring any bells, so I asked him to read it out loud to me.

  The airline with the sense of humor was Kulula, a low cost South African airline. What is different about their airline is that the pilots and attendants make an effort to be entertaining with their safety and in-flight announcements. As a frequent traveler I would really like to hear this kind of humor on the airlines that we fly. Here are a few of the favorites that I have posted. You can find the rest at the Fellowship of the Minds blog.

  ***On another flight with a very “senior” flight attendant crew, the pilot said, “Ladies and gentlemen, we’ve reached cruising altitude and will be turning down the cabin lights. This is for your comfort and to enhance the appearance of your flight attendants.”

  ***Weather at our destination is 50 degrees with some broken clouds, but we’ll try to have them fixed before we arrive. Thank you, and remember, nobody loves you, or your money, more than Kulula Airlines.”

  ***As you exit the plane, 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.”

  ***An airline pilot wrote that on this particular flight he had hammered his ship into the runway really hard. The airline had a policy which required the first officer to stand at the door while the passengers exited, smile, and give them a “Thanks for flying our airline.” He said that in light of his bad landing, he had a hard time looking the passengers in the eye, thinking that someone would have a smart comment. Finally everyone had gotten off except for a little old lady walking with a cane. She said, “Sir, do you mind if I ask you a question?”
  “Why, no Ma’am,” said the pilot. “What is it?” The little old lady said, “Did we land, or were we shot down?”
