A few weeks back, was flying with my spouse from BWI to HOU on an evening flight, mid B boarding group. During boarding, the flight attendants announced: “This flight is only about 2/3 full, so unless your in an especially close relationship, we expect to see empty middle seats all the way down the plane!” My spouse sat in the window and I sat in the aisle, with the middle open. After that announcement, spouse gave me the side eye all the way home!
The FA's will sometimes place a little bit of humor into their announcements. Just more than a year ago, I had one announce after the cleared-to-take-off ding went off: "We've been cleared for departure...Since we'll be defying gravity for a little while...double check those seatbelts...maybe your shoelaces."
It looks like this post is also on Reddit's SW Forum as of last night and got over a couple dozen responses too.
