An award should go to the Virgin Airlines desk attendant in Sydney some months ago for being smart and funny, while making her point, when confronted with a passenger who probably deserved to fly as cargo.


A crowded Virgin flight was cancelled after Virgin's 767s had been withdrawn from service. A single attendant was rebooking a long line of inconvenienced travellers.

Suddenly an angry passenger pushed his way to the desk. He slapped his ticket down on the counter and said, 'I HAVE to be on this flight and it HAS to be FIRST CLASS'.


The attendant replied, 'I'm sorry, sir. I'll be happy to try to help you, but I've got to help these people first, and I'm sure we'll be able to work something out..'

The passenger was unimpressed. He asked loudly, so that the passengers behind him could hear, 'DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO I AM ?'

Without hesitating, the attendant smiled and grabbed her public address microphone:

'May I have your attention please, may I have your attention please,' she began - her voice heard clearly throughout the terminal.

'We have a passenger here at Desk 14 WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHO HE IS. If anyone can help him find his identity, please come to Desk 14.'

With the folks behind him in line laughing hysterically, the man glared at the Virgin attendant, gritted his teeth and said, 'F... You!'

Without flinching, she smiled and said,

















'I'm sorry, sir, but you'll have to get in line for that too.

Soooo - You are going off line soon then Ginny Gins ???

Before you go - re FBG's 'ripples' which her husband ate ??

Could you ask her if I mis-read her original post about this or did she make a 'typing error' ???

P.S. - I thought it was a bit 'naughty' to be on here but perhaps it was my 'poor eyes' !!

So we should get a happy Gins tomorrow then?

I should have been off today giving you all my attention.
Instead no 1 daughter who is also our manager and dispenser has a horrible cough and lost her voice.
So I have been working today.

I wish I was that cool calm and collected with rude people Gins.

JB brought me a lovely gift back from Wales....two croissants!

And they were FLAT after being in his bag on the train.

But it was a nice thought as they are fab from a local shop that make their own and we go there every morning while in Wales

Ah...bless
