Sameer Vasta posted a few snippets of conversation that he overheard at Heathrow Airport on his blog, Eloquation. Here are a few of the choice ones:
“Wait, we’re going on a plane? I thought you said we were flying there?”
“Look honey, he’s using his computer here. I didn’t know computers worked at airports!”
“Is there a place to sleep here? Because my flight doesn’t leave for another 3 days.”
“This country is so backwards. I can’t even find a copy of the San Francisco Chronicle in this shop.”
“Hot pink pants aren’t for everyone, but that guy really pulls it off well.”
(Man about to approach departure gate, after checking in long ago.) “S**t, I forgot my luggage in the taxi.”
“Is there a bathroom here? Because I’m about to explode, and I know explosions are not allowed on planes.”
“I’m so glad I fly first class. The other people here are all so normal.”
“Do they have the AC on? It’s colder than Canada in this terminal!”
“Qantas is a wonderful airline. They let you get drunk on the plane for free.”
“Is this Starbucks owned by same man that owns the one in Hong Kong? I think he stole that man’s logo.”
“They shouldn’t have shops in an airport. People might buy stuff.”
“Why did I have to go through security? It’s not like I’m insecure or something.”
