S**t My Flight Attendant Says
« on: November 16, 2021, 04:31:18 AM »
It's always incredible to hear the random BS some flight attendants come up with and the rules they spontaneously make up.

Flying BA JNB-VFA now and the FA informed me that my headphones must be completely off my head for takeoff and landing.

"FAA regulations prohibit rollaboards on this aircraft, you'll need to check that"

What about Headphones?
Personal headphones can now be used for all stages of flight and may be attached to your personal
device or to the aircraft’s In-flight Entertainment system.
We ask that customers remove their headphones for the safety briefing
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

The announcements on flights to or from JNB are the stuff of legend. I need to search old family email groups to try remember some of the gems.

Same FA: "you must put your shoes back on now!"

After parking and getting connected to the jetbridge, the seatbelt sign switching off, and everyone standing up to get their stuff: "everyone sit right back down now! This is against regulations! You'll have plenty of time to get your things later!"
