So our latest documentary will be MN Air.

What would that airline be like?

Would the Stewards wear The Scarf?

Would they tut and judge?

They would definitely wear the scarf and hand out gin and pombears for snacks.

Salmotrutta · 21/06/2013 22:05

And frown at people who hogged seats with their Kindles.

Loads of MN families would come on and expect to sit together, but would not have pre-booked seats.

Carnage, frankly.

Salmotrutta · 21/06/2013 22:12

Oh yes.

The Entitled Few.

Always good for a comedy line or two...

The drinks trolley would have pedals.

Salmotrutta · 21/06/2013 22:39

Ah yes, pedals.

I expect there will be an argument about someone eating Pringles noisily?

And an annoying Small Child kicking a seat?

Pilot announcement....Good evening Ladies and Gentleman, DS's and DD's, This is your pilot speaking. Would I be unreasonable to fly through turbulence ?

Salmotrutta · 21/06/2013 22:44

Oh gawd - there would surely be an unqualified MNer who knew better than the pilot and would call the police or SS.

There would defiantly be someone 'loud parenting'
" oh look Tarquil there's a cloud...do you know what type of cloud Tarquil ? Did you say a Stratus ? Yes Tarquil, well done, it is a Stratus !"

usualsuspect · 21/06/2013 22:46

Someone would want to know if the in flight meals were made from scratch.

Salmotrutta · 21/06/2013 22:47

And there would be lessons on The Curvature of The Earth.

And Geography.

"Oh look, we are flying over Greenland"

And is the "sandwich" made from artisan bread.

OP posts:
BlahBlahBlahhh · 21/06/2013 22:48

I actually had to research that on Wiki ! Grin my DH is out having a good old piss up with his mates, it's Friday night and Im researching cloud types for a chat forum...I think I may have to get myself a life !

usualsuspect · 21/06/2013 22:49

Ive just been researching druids on Wiki, on a Friday night.

Salmotrutta · 21/06/2013 22:53

You should have just asked LaQueen...

Would there be parent and toddler spaces in the airport car park?

Would the in-flight meals be a choice from organic/hand made/artisan or sausage rolls and fruit shoots (perhaps separate seating areas)

Separate seating areas for 'classic clothes for air travel' vs 'comfortable cropped trousers and a fleece'?

beanandspud · 21/06/2013 23:00

Air crew uniforms designed by Jonnie Boden?

Each plane would have a name or a picture... 'AIBU', 'MNHQ', 'LTB', Biscuit, Bear

Salmotrutta · 21/06/2013 23:01

There would be a teen in a onesie.

OP posts:
BlahBlahBlahhh · 21/06/2013 23:06

There would be the row of parents feeding their children sugar straight from the bag to keep them quiet while proffering handheld games consoles to them to keep them quiet and failing miserably (while ordering a couple of mini bottles of wine each for themselves to numb the pain(Me and DH)
Then there would be the row behind (Tarquil and his parents). Tarquils mummy would be making a start on the collective works of Shakespeare with him while loudly tutting at the heathens in front, vowing never to book a Thomas Cook holiday EVER again Grin

ColinButterfly · 21/06/2013 23:07

At some point, a snowstorm and then it goes a bit the Shining

usualsuspect · 21/06/2013 23:08

The fleece and comfy trouser wearers would be reading a nice Mills and Boon.

Salmotrutta · 21/06/2013 23:11

I expect there would be some loudish complaining (from indulgent parents) about people tutting when free-spirited children rampage up and down the aisles.

Do the titters not know that children must be allowed to express themselves?

OP posts:
Salmotrutta · 21/06/2013 23:12

"Do the tutters not know..." Blush

The duty free trolley would include pearls to clutch and grips to get.
