Good morning everyone, how are you all doing today?

Good morning, Captain. We’re all doing well, thanks for asking. How about you?

I’m doing great. My coffee is helping me stay awake this morning.

I hear you there, captain. Coffee is our savior on long flights.

Speaking of long flights, how much longer until we reach our destination?

We’re about halfway there, captain. ETA is 4 hours and 30 minutes.

That sounds perfect. Thanks for the update.

No problem. Is there anything else we can help you with?

Actually, yes. Can you check if our passengers are comfortable and if they need anything?

Of course! I’ll send one of the flight attendants to check on them.

Thanks a lot. And by the way, did you guys hear about the new airplane joke?

No, what is it?

Why did the airplane break up with its girlfriend?

I have no idea, why?

Because it was just too high maintenance!

Haha, that’s a good one, Captain.

I try. It’s important to keep things lighthearted, especially during long flights.

We completely agree, sir. Speaking of which, would you like to hear a funny story from the last trip?

Absolutely. I can never get enough of those.
