The Helsinki-Toronto flight carried 400 passengers but only had 200 meals onboard due to an airline error, leaving the crew in a tricky situation. Fortunately, a clever flight attendant devised a brilliant plan.
About 30 minutes after takeoff, she made an announcement:
“Ladies and gentlemen, I’m not sure how this happened, but we have 400 passengers and only 200 lunches. If anyone is willing to forgo their meal for another passenger, they will receive unlimited complimentary wine for the duration of the flight!”
Six hours later, she made another announcement:
“Ladies and gentlemen, if anyone has changed their mind, we still have 200 meals available!”
Moral of the story: Wine lovers have truly generous and kind hearts!
