She sang “Because You Loved Me” on the 3:10 Nashville to Pensacola

She is going through a breakup..let her be

No way 😂

America’s (or in this case, Southwest’s) Got Talent.

Was she any good?

This is the real question.

I love how quirky Southwest flight attendants can be some times.

They really are out of all the airlines I’ve travelled and I love it

Gotta find a way to entrain the poors or they become to hostile. No FA has done this to me on a UA flight

UA doesn’t love you.

Every once in a while, Spirit has amateur stand up comedians (FA's) towards the beginning or end of the flight. I wouldn't mind it so much if it came with great customer service, but if you were so so customer service and then hold me hostage through your stand up routine, cmon man...

I hate it.

Right? Get me from point A to point B on time and provide adequate beverage service. That’s literally all I want. I see so much SWA cringe on the internet.

Better than Another One Bites The Dust, right?

Or I’m Going Down

Or Leaving on a Jet Plane

Or "Take this job and shove it"?

Or “Let the bodies hit the floor”

Or “Sweet Home Chicago” when you’re expecting to be in Nashville.

Or “Fire and Rain”

Or “Livin on a Prayer”

Or “Jump”

Or "Broken Wings"

Or Free Falling

You win

“In Birmingham they love the governor….”

Now we all did what we could do

Define irony.

It's better than shoot to kill from AC/DC

*Shoot to Thrill

Captive audience. This is very weird and would be upsetting to me if I were on the plane.

I think it would be fun.

All fun and games until they start singing some Tom Petty, either learning to fly or free falling, take your pick.

Free falling is just learning to fly after the denial phase ends :)

Yeah everyone definitely seemed to have mixed feelings lol

You sound like you belong on American

Or Frontier.

Frontier flight attendants are fun and wacky too

Yeah, I'd be annoyed. A few bars with some context? Sure. But the whole song for no reason? That's just masturbating to an audience who has been given no choice.

It’s weird, but just wear headphones?

Yeah, I would hate this. I haven’t flown SW in a while but another time the flight attendants did something weird that bothered me. I can’t remember as it was a long time ago. People shouldn’t be subjected to this on a paid flight where you are stuck.

Username checks out.

I hate it when they sing or think they’re a comedian. Just do your job and get on with it!

Username does not check out.

Whelp, it's better than the pilot singing "Jesus take the wheel (yoke/stick in this case)" 🤣

I always found the impromptu FA performances joyful. It has helped with my flight anxiety when I was starting out

The second hand embarrassment I’m feeling just from reading this.

Post this in r/nashville, we’d love it there

I had a SW FA sing Blue Bayou on a flight into New Orleans

that's wild ☠️

Was it a good rendition?

As good as could be expected with the quality of the speakers and such high notes…

She did it over the intercom? Ah, hell no.

This was through an announcement!? Holy shit that made it 100x better and confusing lmao

No time to sing at the Bluebird. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

How did she sound? I keep hoping to get the rapper or the comedian for the boring flight safety instructions

Did she brag how she was on americas got talent? That lady can’t sing as well as she thinks she does.

And you didn't record any of this? And apparently no one else has recorded any other time she's done this? Please, I need to at least hear what's going on.

I think we’re all just in shock 😂

I would assume she is hoping someone records it, posts it, and she goes viral/gets famous

Imagine this on like a United flight. So much bitching ensues.

Because United actually runs a professional operation.

Except for the times the FAs are kinda pissy

Ours asked the whole plane to do yoga on my flight from SoCal to NorCal today. I politely declined, but my neighbor appeared visibly confused 🤔

I’d be looking for my parachute.

This reminds me of the time SW staff had the passengers do a karaoke contest to determine who could board first. It was great. There were maybe 10 of us on the flight.

Did you make the “A” list?

But did she sound any good?

Take Me Home, Country Roads

Yes, I’m sure there was, but I wasn’t one of them.

Sounds like my bus driver (BNA) got hired on to a SW FA roll. Good for him. Man was carpool karoking us at 6 am.

I've had that guy! No build up at all, just belting out “My Girl” on a 4:30 AM shuttle 🥴

1000% the same guy lmao.

We have a lot of local talent here in Nashville 😂🤦‍♀️

Can’t throw a guitar in this town without hittin’ a singer 🎙️!

I wonder if she’s the same person who sang “Rocky Top” on my flight into Nashville.

I definitely would have been entertained. It would have been neat if the song was "Traveling Band" by Creedence Clearwater Revival. "737 coming out of the sky........"

Was she good?

If they get on the PA singing Living on a Prayer, tighten that seat belt.

You never know what’s about to go down on a plane these days. Ear buds & eye mask for the win!

Hahahha I was not on this flight but I’m certain I’ve had this FA before or at least one that loved to sing over the PA. I’ve also had a guy FA on southwest who did this. They always have the goofiest personalities

Once we were flying Nashville to Vegas and an unknown named Gretchen Wilson got up, stretched her legs and grabbed her guitar from the overhead bin. She serenaded our SW flight for at least half an hour. I was good the first song or two and then it felt…invasive.

One time one of the flight attendants was Roy Rogers's granddaughter. She sang Happy Trails to us during landing. It was lovely.

I was on the phl-bna. “We have weather. You may or may not get service” We did. Nothing totally weird. Except for the pre boarders near me. Memaw somehow left her dentures in the hotel and son/sil was getting them shipped home while waiting to board. Oh, and the other preboarding lady whose daughter kept apologizing for something while said older woman held a big ass store bag filled with ice to her head.

Ok, I can see leaving a coat or underwear at the hotel, but dentures?

I’m just a person at the gate wondering wtf as well.

I really hope they tipped housekeeping who had to go find those teeth and pack them for shipping!

I had one sing that Nashville -> San Antonio last Thursday

I would have just burst out laughing, like hysterically. Nothing makes me turn into an 11 year old kid like awkward situations

It might be some psychological intervention to keep stress and aggression low while departing the plane.

https://www.classicfm.com/composers/verdi/cape-town-opera-plane-flashmob/ The Drinking Song. I would have toasted them :)

Awkward

curious how the pilots feel about that 

Pilots are in a lockbox and can’t hear anything aside from radio chatter with the towers. Paid to literally do one job.

I would enjoy this. Keeps life interesting

Not on a plane but I had jury duty once and the county clerk came out and sang Crazy (Patsy Cline song) while we were there.

I think I had that same flight attendant DEN-MCI a week ago

Turns out there are worse things to do on a plane than yelling bomb

This is why Southwest is an absolute joke outside the business commuter routes. You have to deal with this bullshit SNA<->SJC at 6:45am and 5pm Mon-Thur.

One time I was connecting in Kansas City, and the stewardess sang the song Kansas City here I come. The whole plane joined in.

I thinkkkkkk I had this FA last week going to Atlanta

She literally had "a captive audience "

We had an FA sing “Over the Rainbow” while playing his ukulele on a Hawaii flight on SW.

Amazing, I love it!! Every SW FA I’ve encountered that got the mic has been a comedian, and it’s fantastic. I hope they never stop. Makes my fought anxiety just disappear. They’re seriously the best.

Did she sing it like Dolly or like Whitney?

This is the real question.

I hate that shit

I never get cool flights like this. 🥲

Was she good?!

Was she at least in tune?

Kinda

I’m not looking to be entertained by the staff on a flight. It’s a transportation method not a show. One of my few complaints about SW as a whole. Just generally wish the FAs did less. There’s so much PA chatter.

I totally agree with you.

Life of the party, I bet.

It’s not a party. It’s a flight. Which people may be on for a variety of reasons (good/ bad), be experiencing a variety of things, and not want to have to deal with this.

I guess I'm lucky that I can't imagine being so wrapped up in things that I can't appreciate the odd and interesting moments like this that happen in life.

Congratulations

Then you have obviously not had to fly while in a shock of grief over an untimely death.
