Airline emergency

[danmand]

On a flight from London to New York City It was only discovered after take off, they didn't have enough meals for all the passengers.

However, one smart flight attendant had an idea.

A couple of hours into the flight she nervously announced, “Ladies and gentleman, we don't know how this happened, but we have over 400 people on board, but only 200 dinners.

Anyone who is kind enough to give up their meal to someone else, will receive unlimited free liquor for the duration of the flight!”

Her next announcement came 5 hours later.

“Ladies and gentlemen, if anyone wants to change their mind, we still have 200 dinners available.”

I once got a flight from LA to Fiji - cant remember exactly but something like a 14 hour flight - when they served the main meals I got a stale cold cheese sandwich. When i asked why i didnt get a cooked meal she said "We dont have enough on board" and then as an afterthought she said sarcastically "unless you want one of ours" pointing to the other cabin crew.... Free alcohol would have been nice

To both post above. Which Airlines?
For sure it is not AIR CANADA.

I think I booked American but it was a code share with Fiji Airways. Really annoying thing is we were sat right at the front of Economy so we could literally see the cabin crew eating their meals. Id be too embarrassed to do that.
