How to Pretend You’re A Frequent Flyer While On A Plane
Mastering the art of sky-high deception, one air mile at a time
Let’s be real, we’ve all been there — sitting in economy, clutching our complimentary peanuts like they’re the last meal we’ll ever have, and secretly wishing we could strut down the aisle like we own the plane. But fear not, my fellow ground-dwellers, because today, I’m going to teach you the fine art of faking it till you make it at 35,000 feet.
Step 1: Dress the Part
First things first, you’ve got to look the part. This doesn’t mean you need to rock up in a three-piece suit or a ball gown. Instead, aim for that sweet spot between “I just rolled out of bed” and “I’m here to close a million-dollar deal.” Think business casual with a twist of “I didn’t try too hard, but I’m naturally this fabulous.”
Step 2: The Art of the Casual Name-Drop
You know how in movies, the seasoned flyer always greets the flight attendants by name? Yeah, let’s channel that energy. Take a quick glance at their name tag and drop a casual “Thank you, Susan,” as you board. It’s all about the subtle flex like you’re on this plane so often, you’re practically on a first-name basis with the crew.
