    Attendant: Welcome aboard Ryan Air, sir. May I see your ticket?


    Passenger: Sure.


    Attendant: You're in seat 12B. That will be €5, please!


    Passenger: What for?


    Attendant: For telling you where to sit.


    Passenger: But I already knew where to sit.


    Attendant: Nevertheless, we are now charging a seat locator fee of €5. It's the airline's new policy.


    Passenger: That's the craziest thing I ever heard. I won't pay it.


    Attendant: Sir, do you want a seat on this flight, or not?


    Passenger: Yes, yes. All right, I'll pay. But the airline is going to hear about this.


    Attendant: Thank you. My goodness, your carry-on bag looks heavy. Would you like me to stow it in the overhead compartment for you?


    Passenger: That would be swell, thanks.


    Attendant: No problem. Up we go, and done! That will be €10, please.


    Passenger: What?


    Attendant: The airline now charges a €10 carry-on assistance fee.


    Passenger: This is extortion. I won't stand for it.


    Attendant: Actually, you're right, you can't stand. You need to sit, and fasten your seat belt. We're about to push back from the gate. But, first I need that €10.


    Passenger: No way!


    Attendant: Sir, if you don't comply, I will be forced to call the air marshal. And you really don't want me to do that.


    Passenger: Why not? Is he going to shoot me?


    Attendant: No, but there's a €50 air-marshal hailing fee.


    Passenger: Oh, all right, here, take the €10. I can't believe this.


    Attendant: Thank you for your cooperation, sir. Is there anything else I can do for you?


    Passenger: Yes. It's stuffy in here, and my overhead fan doesn't seem to work. Can you fix it?


    Attendant: Your overhead fan is not broken, sir. Just insert two euros into the overhead coin slot for the first five minutes.


    Passenger: The airline is charging me for cabin air?


    Attendant: Of course not, sir. Stagnant cabin air is provided free of charge. It's the circulating air that costs 2 euro.


    Passenger: I don't have any euro coins. Can you make change for a Tenner?


    Attendant: Certainly, sir! Here you go!


    Passenger: But you've given me only 2 euros.


    Attendant: Yes, there's a change-making fee of 8 euro.


    Passenger: For cryin' out loud. All I have left is a lousy 2 euro coin? What the heck can I do with this?


    Attendant: Hang onto it. You'll need it later for the lavatory.
