How about something a little more light-hearted than our usual fare of cabin safety news and flight attendant labor issues: I noticed an entertaining article posted to Nuts About Southwest, the official blog of Southwest Airlines. It was written by a Carole Adams, a Dallas-based flight attendant.Ms. Adams wrote Drop Me a Line, a collection of pick-up lines heard by flight attendants. Here's a sample of the pick-up lines on her list:
“You have to know CPR because you take my breath away.”Okay, stop rolling your eyes. I know they're groaners, but I think that's the point.!
“I’m not drunk. I’m just intoxicated by you!”
“If I borrowed your glasses, could I see you tomorrow night?”
“Congratulations, you’ve just been voted the most beautiful Flight Attendant. I’m your prize!”
There are others on that post, and still more contributed by readers in the Comments section at the end of the post. Go and have a look at Drop Me a Line. Go ahead and add your favorite (or least favorite!) pick-up line to the list -- there, or here.
