This scene took place on a BA flight between Johannesburg, South Africa and London, England . A white woman , about 50 years old, was seated next to a black man .
Obviously disturbed by this, she called the air hostess . "You obviously do not see it then ?" she responded . "You placed me next to a black man . I do not agree to sit next to someone from such a repugnant group . Give me an alternative seat ."
" Be calm please," the hostess replied. " Almost all the places on this flight are taken. I will go to see if another place is available ."
The hostess went away and then came back a few minutes later . "Madam, just as I thought, there are no other available seats in the Economy Class . I spoke to the captain and he informed me that there is also no seat in the Business Class . All the same, we still have one place in the First Class ."
Before the woman could say anything, the hostess continued . "It is not usual for our company to permit someone from the Economy Class to sit in the First Class . However , given the circumstances, the captain feels
that it would be scandalous to make someone sit next to someone sooooo disgusting ." She turned to the black guy, and said , "Therefore , Sir, if you would like to, please collect your hand luggage, a seat awaits you in First Class ." At that moment, the other passengers , who'd been shocked by what they had just witnessed, stood up and applauded .
This is a true story. WELL DONE, British Airways
