Joke

During the "rush hour" at Houston's Hobby Airport, a flight wasdelayed due to a mechanical problem.

Since they needed the gate for another flight, the aircraft wasbacked away from the gate while the maintenance crew worked onit. The passengers were then told the new gate number, which wassome distance away. Everyone moved to the new gate, only to finda third gate had been designated for them.

After some further shuffling, everyone got on board, and as theywere settling in, the flight attendant made the standardannouncement, "We apologize for the inconvenience of thislast-minute gate change. This flight is going to Washington, D.C.If your destination is not Washington, D.C., then you should'deplane' at this time."

A very confused-looking and red-faced pilot emerged from thecockpit, carrying his bags. "Sorry," he said, wrong plane."
