Things You Can't Do on a Plane: Vol. 21
You might think that after Volume 1, Volume 2, Volume 3, Volume 4, Volume 5, Volume 6, Volume 7, Volume 8, Volume 9, Volume 10, Volume 11, Volume 12, Volume 13, Volume 14, Volume 15, Volume 16, Volume 17, Volume 18, Volume 19 and Volume 20 of Things You Can't Do on a Plane, that we'd have exhausted the list of things you can't do on a plane. Nope! The list grows daily.
Here are three more things I've recently learned that you cannot do on a plane:
- Tell passengers after a 4 1/2 hour delay that they can deplane if they "have the balls to want to get off." Flight attendants may not announce over the intercom after a lengthy delay that "if anyone has the balls to want to get off, I'll let you get off! Get off!" CONSEQUENCE: Flight attendant will be removed from the flight for questioning.
- Force a passenger to sit across from a corpse on a 10-hour international flight. In the event of a passenger's death during a flight, flight attendants should not require other passengers to sit across the aisle from the corpse for the rest of the trip. CONSEQUENCE: Airline will apologize and refund about half the cost of the passenger's $1,400 ticket.
- Board a plane with a vital organ larger than the 100 ml limit for a liquid. Passengers may not board a plane with a trachea seeded with 60 million stem cells that must be implanted within 16 hours if the bottle exceeds 100 ml. CONSEQUENCE: Passenger will need to find another small jet to fly the container at a cost of $21,000.
