“
Thank you
for waiting.
At this moment in time,
we’d like to invite
First Class passengers only
to board the aircraft.
Thank you for waiting.
We now extend our invitation to
Exclusive, Superior, Privilege
and Excelsior members...
Thank you for waiting.
We now invite Meteorite customers,
and passengers enrolled in our
Rare Earth, Metals points and
rewards scheme and thank you
for waiting...
We also welcome Sapphire, Ruby
and Emerald members at this time,
followed by Amethyst, Onyx, Obsidian,
Jet, Topaz and Quartz members...
Also welcome at this time are passengers talking loudly to cell phone headsets about recently completed property acquisitions, share deals and aggressive takeovers, plus hedge fund managers with proven track records in the undermining of small to medium-sized ambitions.
Thank you for waiting.
