Being a flight attendant requires patience, but one attendant’s clever comeback to an entitled passenger proved unforgettable. As the plane prepared for landing, the flight attendant asked everyone to raise their trays, saying, “Captain Marvey has asked me to announce that he’ll be landing the big scary plane shortly, so lovely people, if you could just put your trays up, that would be super.”
While most complied, one well-dressed woman ignored him. When he asked again, she smugly replied, “In my country, I am called a Princess and I take orders from no one.” Without missing a beat, the attendant shot back, “Well, sweet-cheeks, in my country I’m called a Queen, so I outrank you. Tray up.”
The woman was stunned, and the passengers burst into laughter. It was a lighthearted reminder of how humor can turn a tense moment into something unforgettable.
