Making your customers sit on the floor
Posted by Rich...! under Uncategorized on September 17 2005 at 1:04 PMThe other day I was flying up from Cape Town on SAA (my third choice airline, Nationwide rocks). So there was a delay in boarding, that wasn’t so bad in itself, what pissed me off though was that the SAA flight crew took lots of the available seats, leaving the passengers to quite literally, sit on the floor.
Now sure, they should have a right to sit too, but somewhere else, it was adding insult to injury, and it showed me that their crews just don’t get it…!

hell, arrived back this morning, and got stuck in the “Goods to Declare” queue behind the whole fucking SAA crew from my flight, who apparently have preference with all the available customs officials. When I tried to move to an open counter, I was told by a stewardess (or whatever the fuck they call themselves these days: “No, flight attendants first”.
The only reason I didn’t blow my top was that I didn’t want to piss off a customs official, and end up sifting through the contents of my bag for half an hour.
SAA can lick my balls.

Salami from killarney:
Wow, so u think that the crew should queue behind you for customs…..HAHAAH! Don’t be ridiculous, you have been sitting on your fat arse the whole night while they fetch and carry you free alcohol and food, and don’t tell me you pay for it when you purchase your ticket,’PLEASE’ typically South African.(The world owes you)! And if you were as well travelled as most of you claim to be, then you would know that it is custom in the industry that all employees of airports or airlines get preference to passengers, so you typical South African passenger, lick your own balls! And I did not even work for any airline in Africa. I worked for a European airline and found South African passengers to be the most demanding in the world, its a disgrace, try your shit on an American airline and then see what shit service and attitude is about. Also bear in mind Mr traveller, that SAA cabin crew were rated the 2nd best cabin crew in the world for 2007, so once again check out Skytrax.com for those facts in case you try defend yourself…so once again lick it!

WTF? How can you say, “you have been sitting on your fat arse the whole night while they fetch and carry you free alcohol and food” then chase it up with, “and don’t tell me you pay for it when you purchase your ticket,’PLEASE’ typically South African.”
We do pay for it you fucking muppet, just like we pay for you guys to run up and down the aisles. What do you think your job is (was) anyway?
Flying waiters, that’s it. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think that’s a bad thing, I just don’t believe that you should have a delusion of grandeur – which you obviously do.
Oh, and skytrax.com doesn’t work..!

Rich,U are the fucking muppet, what you are actually paying for is the fuel(gas),aviation fuel, petrol, call it what you want, before you don’t understand that either. Other airlines overseas don’t even offer anything on board for FREE (HELLO), so muppet, what are you paying for then, the fucking oxygen you are breathing on board? Get a fucking life idiot! Oh and maybe if you don’t know how to use the computer, something like GOOGLE, try going to http://www.airlinequality.com and see the fucking Skytrax comments and awards, then make up your mind, note, its a 4 star airline, what more do you demanding idiots want? Your own private jet for nothing as well?

Seriously, wake the fuck up. I’m paying for everything, if I was just paying for fuel etc. I’d be on a no-frills low cost airline, such as the ones you mentioned overseas, by the way, we have those here too.
