Second-Rate Airline
I was traveling business class from Dubai to Melbourne on Qantas, Australia’s airline. We were supposed to leave at midnight if I remember correctly, but two passengers didn’t turn up and we had to offload their luggage before we could leave. Because of this, we missed our takeoff window and the captain informed us we potentially had to wait up to two hours to find another gap.
The entitled man behind me in business class took offense to this and started loudly protesting to the flight attendant, “Always late, every time I fly! This is a second-rate airline! I didn’t spend five grand to be late”. The attendant was good and tried to calm him, offering him champagne or orange juice, but he wasn’t having any of it.
He kept grumbling for 10-15 mins, then, when he realized there was nothing any of us could do, he reclined his seat to lay flat and pulled his convenience mask over his eyes so he could sleep.
