Pre-departure Ritual


This is what it's all about......

Flight Attendant: Sir can I get you a pre-departure drink?
Me: (It's before 9am local time – what do I have?)
FA: Some water, juice or champagne?
Me: O.K. I'll have a glass of champagne! (I don't fly First Class every week or ever in fact!)
FA: Would that be the Krug or the Dom Perignon?
Me: I'll have some Dom Perignon.

The flight attendant disappears to the galley and the next thing I hear is the 'pop' of a champagne bottle being opened! A few seconds later she has returned to my seat displaying the bottle of Dom Perignon about to pour it in to a champagne flute. Oh this is the life!
