Jmerica In The Friendly Skies

user submitted pictureThe following amusing anecdote was sent to us from Jmerican and airline pilot Doug Lampert:


This is a true story which happened several weeks ago. As an airline captain, I come across some unique situations, but this one is definitely the funniest. A young group of BBYO/BBYG passengers boarded for their usual group trip. I jokingly asked the flight attendant “Do we have any Jews on board?” The Texan flight attendant smiled and with her southern drawl replied “Yes!” We have orange juice, grapefruit juice, tomato juice…” I broke out with laughter and spilled juice all over myself. Then I realized the PA system had been left on. The entire aircraft was hysterical for 30 minutes. What could I do after that? I opened the bar to keep the positive mood flowing.


Very generous of you, Captain; we trust you didn’t partake in any mixin’ while at the helm. Where’s your profile so the Jmerican ladies can snag a date with a real live pilot?

  1. That’s too funny! How do you leave the PA on? I wish more pilots did that so that we can really hear whats on their minds and find out which flight attendants were acting up during the overnight stays in the hotel. Give us some info here!

  2. There’s nothing like a hot flight attendant to get you thru a long trip. I heard that same “Juice” joke except it was with a Chinese restaurant and a cuban customer who didnt understand each other or something. It’s funny that it happened in real life, wish I could have been on that flight.
