The Amritsar-Toronto flight was loaded with 400 passengers and only 200 lunches.
The airline made a mistake, and the crew was in a difficult position. However, one smart shipwoman had an idea!
About 30 minutes after the flight, she nervously announced: "Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know how it happened, but we have 400 passengers on board and only 200 lunches! Anyone who is kind enough to give up their food for someone else’s sake will receive free alcoholic beverages in unlimited quantities throughout the flight!”
The following announcement was made in 6 hours:
“Ladies and gentlemen, if anyone wants to change their mind, we still have 200 lunches!”
