WestJet is an Airline with head office situated in Calgary, Alberta.
WestJet airline attendants make an effort to make the in-flight "safety lecture" and announcements a bit more entertaining. Here are some real examples that have been heard or reported:
On a WestJet flight (There is no assigned seating, you just sit where
You want) passengers were apparently having a hard time choosing, when a
flight attendant announced, "People, People we're not picking out furniture
here, find a seat and get in it!"
On another West Jet Flight with a very "senior" flight attendant crew,
The pilot said, "Ladies and gentlemen, we've reached cruising altitude and
Will be turning down the cabin lights. This is for your comfort and to
Enhance the appearance of your flight attendants."
On landing, the stewardess said, "Please be sure to take all of your
Belongings. If you're going to leave anything, please make sure it's
Something we'd like to have."
"There may be 50 ways to leave your lover, but there are only 4 ways out
Of this airplane."
"Thank you for flying West Jet Express. We hope you enjoyed giving us
The Business as much as we enjoyed taking you for a ride."
As the plane landed and was coming to a stop at the Vancouver Airport, a
Lone voice came over the loudspeaker: "Whoa, big fella. WHOA!"
After a particularly rough landing during thunderstorms in Ontario, a
Flight Attendant on a West Jet flight announced, "Please take care when opening
The Overhead compartments because, after a landing like that, sure as hell
Everything has shifted."
From a West Jet Airlines employee: "Welcome aboard West Jet Flight 245
To Calgary. To operate your seat belt, insert the metal tab into the
Buckle, And pull tight. It works just like every other seat belt; and, if you
Don't Know how to operate one, you probably shouldn't be out in public
Unsupervised."
"In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, masks will descend
From the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and pull it over your face.
If You have a small child traveling with you, secure your mask before
Assisting With theirs. If you are traveling with more than one small child, pick
Your favorite."
Weather at our destination is 50 degrees with some broken clouds, but
We'll try to have them fixed before we arrive. Thank you, and remember, nobody
Loves you, or your money, more than West Jet Airlines."
"Your seat cushions can be used for flotation; and in the event of an
Emergency water landing, please paddle to shore and take them with our
Compliments." "As you exit the plane, make sure to gather all of your
Belongings. Anything left behind will be distributed evenly among the
Flight Attendants.. Please do not leave children or spouses."
And from the pilot during his welcome message: "West Jet Airlines is
Pleased to announce that we have some of the best flight attendants in the
Industry. Unfortunately, none of them are on this flight!"
Heard on West Jet Airlines just after a very hard landing in Edmonton:
The flight attendant came on the intercom and said, "That was quite a bump,
And I know what y'all are thinking. I'm here to tell you it wasn't the
Airline's' fault, it wasn't the pilot's fault, it wasn't the flight attendant's fault, it was
The asphalt.
Overheard on an West Jet Airlines flight into Regina, on a particularly
Windy and bumpy day: During the final approach, the Captain was really
having to fight it. After an extremely hard landing, the Flight Attendant
said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Regina. Please remain in your
Seats with your seat belts fastened while the Captain taxis what's left of our
Airplane to the gate!"
Another flight attendant's comment on a less than perfect landing: "We
Ask you to please remain seated as Captain Kangaroo bounces us to the
Terminal."
An airline pilot wrote that on this particular flight he had hammered
His ship into the runway really hard. The airline had a policy which
Required the first officer to stand at the door while the Passengers exited,
Smile, and give them a "Thanks for flying our airline." He said that, in
light of his bad landing, he had a hard time looking the passengers in
The eye, thinking that someone would have a smart comment. Finally everyone
Had gotten off except for a little old lady walking with a cane. She said,
"Sir, do you mind if I ask you a question?" "Why, no, Ma'am," said the pilot.
"What is it?" The little old lady said, "Did we land, or were we shot
down?"
After a real crusher of a landing in Halifax, the attendant came onWith,
"Ladies and Gentlemen, please remain in your seats until Captain Crash
and the Crew have brought the aircraft to a screeching halt against the
gate. And, once the tire smoke has cleared and the warning bells are
silenced, we will open the door and you can pick your way through the
wreckage to the terminal."
Part of a flight attendant's arrival announcement: "We'd like to thank
You folks for flying with us today. And, the next time you get the insane
urge to go blasting through the skies in a pressurized metal tube, we
Hope you'll think of West Jet Airways."
Heard on a West Jet Airline flight. "Ladies and gentlemen, if you wish
to smoke, the smoking section on this airplane is on the wing. If you can
Light 'em, you can smoke 'em."
A plane was taking off from the Winnipeg Airport. After it reached a
comfortable cruising altitude, the captain made an announcement over the
intercom, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. Welcome
To Flight Number 293, nonstop from Winnipeg to Montreal, The weather ahead
Is good and, therefore, we should have a smooth and uneventful flight. Now
sit back and relax... OH, MY GOD!" Silence followed, and after a few
minutes, the captain came back on the intercom and said, "Ladies and
Gentlemen, I am so sorry if I scared you earlier. While I was talking to
you, the flight attendant accidentally spilled a cup of hot coffee in my
lap. You should see the front of my pants!" A passenger in Coach yelled,
"That's nothing. You should see the back of mine!"
