We can't verify this story, but it seems that aircrews are getting more
resourceful about supplementing their incomes...
An AVweb reader reports that, while sitting in the upper deck business
class front seat of a Cathay Pacific 747 in Taipei, the following
announcement was heard over the cabin PA system: "Ladies and gentlemen, we
are overbooked and are offering anyone $1,000 plus a seat on the next
flight in exchange for their seat on this flight."
After a short pause, the offer was loudly accepted by someone in the
cockpit.
