Jerry Quote #603
Quote from Jerry in The Airport
[stand-up:]
Jerry: But I have to admit that I like flying. I like those little bathrooms that they have on the plane. It's kind of like a small apartment of your own on the plane. You go in, you close the door, the light comes on. It's like a little surprise party every time you go in there. But the worst way of flying, I think is "standby". You ever fly standby? It never works. You know, that's why they call it standby, you stand there going "Bye!" So I was on this flight where the flight attendant. It was her first day on the job so they didn't have a uniform for her yet, and that really makes a big difference. I mean, this is just some regular person coming over to you going, "Would you mind bringing your seat back all the way up?" It's like, "Who the hell are you?!" She says, "Well, I'm the flight attendant." "Oh, yeah? Well, I'm the pilot, all right? So why don't you sit down? I'm about to bring her in."

Quote from Jerry
[stand-up:]
Jerry: Have you noticed that everything on planes is always tiny? There's always tiny food, tiny liquor bottles, tiny pillows, tiny bathroom, tiny sink, tiny soap. Everyone's in a cramped seat, working on a tiny computer. There's always a small problem "There'll be a slight delay. We'll be a bit late. If you could be a little patient. We're just trying to get one of those little trucks to pull us up just a little closer to the jetway so you can walk down the narrow hallway. There'll be a man there in a tight suit and he'll tell you you have very little time to make your connecting flight. So move it!''.
Quote from Elaine
Attendant: Excuse me. Excuse me!
Elaine: What? Oh, no, nothing for me thanks.
Attendant: What is your name?
Elaine: Elaine Benes?
Attendant: [checks her list] Hmm. You're going to have to go back to coach.
Elaine: No, but there was nobody sitting here.
Attendant: Yes, but you're still not allowed. These seats are very expensive.
Elaine: Oh, no. Please, don't send me back there. Please, I'll do anything. It's so nice up here. It's so comfortable up here. I don't want to go back there. Please don't send me back there! Oh, you got cookies.
Attendant: You're going to have to go back to your seat!
Elaine: Okay, fine. I'll go back... You know, our goal should be a society without classes. [after returning to coach] Do you realize that the people up here are getting cookies!
