Anyway, I was on a flight and often times I would let the majority of the plane deboard before I limped down the aisle holding up other passengers. At the jetway there were about 4 or 5 wheelchairs waiting. One was for me and the flight attendant said "He's (me) the last. The miracle of flight has struck again!" Meaning the others hobbled on and dashed off like an athlete!
Yep. Seen it. I usually don't fly Southwest. But when I do, I pay to be in the 'A' group. I get on before the 'miracle cures'.
