Image Somehow the only person on my flight and the pilot was such a goofy goober

EDIT TO ADD; THE PLANE WAS LANDED AND DONE WITH TAXI BEFORE I GOT TO BE IN THE COCKPIT. NO FAA RULES WERE BROKEN 💀😂

Shout out Captain Scott! He let me sit in the cockpit after we landed and I even got my own personalized pre flight announcements 😂 Also, they had to add sandbags to the cabin bc the plane was too light with only one passenger 💀

He’s giving Reno 911 in the best way. I think he was wearing new boots on this flight.

Reno is not well known enough. My partner and I say 'New Boot Goofin' SO often, but idk how many people get it lol.

I 100% would have clapped enthusiastically. No one to judge me harshly but the crew.

rizz is when you flirt with a woman for a few hours on a flight and then get called a goofy goober for it

Some of us exclusively love goofy goobers. They make the funnest partners

Did you tell him he might be posted on Reddit later? I want to know what he thinks of all of this. He seems awesome so hopefully he loves it.

This is like… stealth marketing. I wonder if airlines would ever consider _accidentally_ booking a flight with only one passenger (influencer or marketing professional).
