WE HAVE.......... This happened in one of the local airlines in India. A fair and good looking woman (Parvathi) in her mid-sixty’s, boarded in and arrived at her seat and saw that the passenger next to her was in ordinary clothes and not so good looking black man. Visibly furious, Parvathi called the air hostess. Air Hostess : Yes ma’am? Parvathi: Can’t you see? I was given a seat next to an ordinary black man? Air Hostess : I am sorry to say ma’am, for us all the passengers are same. Does he troubles you? Parvathi: (loudly) That’s not a question, (said with pride) I am a Brahmin, and I should be seating with good looking and good caste people. I can’t seat here next to him. You have to change my seat. Air Hostess :- Please, calm down, ma’am, you are disturbing all the passengers. Unfortunately, all the seats are occupied, but I’m still going to check if we have any. The hostess left and returned some minutes later. Air Hostess : Ma’am, as I told you, there isn’t any empty seat in this economy class. I spoke to the captain and he confirmed that there isn’t any empty seats. We only have seats in the business class. Parvathi: (shouted) I don’t care. That’s your problem. Air Hostess : Look Ma’am, it is unusual for our Airline to allow a passenger from the economy class change to the business class. However, given the circumstances, the commandant thinks that it would be a scandal to make a passenger travel sat next to an unpleasant person. And turning to the man next to Parvathi the Air Hostess said: Air Hostess : Sir, would you please leave this seat and come with me, we have reserved you a seat in the business class… And all the passengers nearby, who were shocked to see the scene started applauding, some of them standing on their feet.
