Language To Charm Air Travelers

"The first-class bathroom is for first-class passengers. There are two other bathrooms for coach passengers."
(Like, where? Where'd they put the outhouses in this Airbus 319?)
"We apologize for the lengthy delay. We'll be airborne just as soon as a few numbers arrive."
(Like what? Eight? Eleven? Pi?)
"The captain has turned on the fasten seatbelt sign. We expect violent turbulence as we approach Albuquerque!"
(Oh great! Violence! A bone-crunching good time!)

As it turned out, there were only a few minor bumps.
