@phatima1

As much as I hate the service on PIA, the people on the flights always seize to amaze me. Yea, we’re all Pakistani, but on PIA, you’ve got all kinds of scenarios. After sitting still on a flight for some 16+ hours, you get the feeling that you’ve learned a fair amount of people sitting around you just by examining them throughout the flight. (orrrr maybe I’m the only loser that sits there and watches people’s every move lol).

Anyways, for the sake of amusement, here are the different types of people you’ll see on PIA flights. Feel free to add more

• First people you encounter are those Auntie air hostesses with the duputtas that are halfway off their heads. They stand at the entrance door welcoming you with a bright smile. As soon as the door closes and the plane is up in the air, they turn into freaky she-devils.

• The uncles with the big moochai and 2-inch high hair (kinda like Shikra’s :p), standing there like they’re real tough-guys and all macho. As soon as they hear that some kid has vomitted all over the Economy Class floor, they run out of sight.

• Those annoying kids, that are visiting Pakistan for the first time and are amazed by just about anything they see, be it an armpit hair…they just feel the urge to shout out “WOAAAAA!!!” at the top of their lungs to announce to the entire aircraft that they’ve just discovered something that’d seem pathetic to anyone who’s been on planet Earth for over a period of 10 years.

• The Aunties that don’t shut their kids up because they’re too sleepy and tired to even move. They’ve finally escaped their hectic lives running their families in America, trying to raise their kids as good Muslims, and finally, they’re back to see the rest of the family. I don’t blame them for sleeping their hearts out on PIA. Let them drool all they want, as long as it pays off for all the hard work they’ve been doing. Yay for the Desi Ammis!

• The Uncles that let out an occasional snort while in a deep sleep. They start complaining every time anybody opens a window because the light peers into the plane and they need to get some sleep (even though they’ve been laying like a dead corpse for about 13 hours).

• The 20-some-year-old Pakistani guy that’s either an engineer, an accountant, or a doctor, and is finally visiting his family back in Pakistan after coming to USA for college at age 18 and starting a new life. He’s going back to his home country…a place where he won’t be made fun of and be called a “FOB”, but instead will be praised for being able to get as far and succeed in getting a good job in the states.

• The overly-ABCDish teenage girl that sits on the plane wearing tight jeans and a teeny-tiny top thinking she’s so cute. Since she’s going to Pakistan for the first time, she knows little of how the men on the streets act there and she will soon find this out when she first gets off the plane in Pakistan at the airport.

• The “cool” ABCD teenage guys that keep their headphones on the entire flight, even while using the bathroom. They listen to cheap rap music and bob their head back and forth to the beat. They have absolutely no idea how stupid they look since nobody else can hear the music and we just see his head moving around.

• The dadi ammas that bang on the bathroom doors because they can’t read the word “occupied”. Hmm, so maybe if they bang on the door, the person inside will have an increased level of tension, therefore causing the **** to seep out much quicker so he’ll get out and she can use the bathroom.

• The molvi’s that have 6-inch long beards and wear no shoes on the flight. Just a plain white shalwaar kameez with a toupee. Okay, and maybe a blue or black vest over the shalwaar kameez if they feel extra perky. You should make a mental note of which bathrooms you see a molvi walk out of. It’s for your own health.

• The pre-teen psycho kids that just sit there and stare at the back of the seat infront of them. They have absolutely no interest at this point in their life. Not music, movies, drawing, eating..nothing. The most you’ll hear from them is when they ask their dad in a huge desi accent “Daddy fuust vee go tooh Karachi and THEN Pakistan?”. The father, not paying attention to anything but the food, simply replies “Shutup, beta”.

Feel free to add to the list :rotato:

yeh sab kon parhayga ? wo bhi in pink…

^ ok yea but what if you had paid extra money to sit in that seat, and someone walked up to you and demanded you swap seats, without you even offering.

that doesnt happen…because economy people arent allowed at the front anyway so if people want to swap…its usually within the same catergory…and they want to sit near a friend/family member. I’d let them

he must be telling porkies…no1 in their right mind goes to some1 who paid more for a seat and asks them to swap. thats just plain stupid

Re: ..::Types of People You’ll See on PIA::..

@Impulse

again I totally disagree. when I went this time there was a guy in front of me with his 1 son…and his other son was sitting on the opposite side of the plane…and the dad went to him to reassure him…when he came back…the dad looked kinda worried that his son is sitting so far away…and the kid was quiet young. so unlike you mean people…I actually offered the guy my seat and said I’ll swap with hsi son. the guy was really happy and we did swap. whats the big deal…if some1 wants my seat…I’d give it anytime.
air hostesses have never been bitchy to me. I guess its ur perception of what bitchy is. PIA in general is ok according to me

Hey
You gave up your seat voluntarily. Its a whole another thing when people try to force you into giving up your seat. If you were given an assigned seat, you should go to that seat unless the other person voluntarily gives it up.
And most aunties and uncles are really fat who hog up your arm rest. Its nasty when their blubber is touching against your skin

thats not a nice thing to say about uncles/aunties…they are older than you so u should learn to respect them and not speak so rudely about them.

Yes that’s precisely the point. they WEREN’T in their right mind he’s just saying how rude it was. i agree. that is rude.

Re: ..::Types of People You'll See on PIA::..

honestly! i would've tried talkin back in ebonics n pretend i don't understand urdu or even accented english fo that matter...that usually works n restrains anyone makin u feel uncomfo cuz then whoever that was askin for seat would've felt really stupid for even trying. I think! :-) fo shizzle!
