I flew JetBlue from Syracuse to New Orleans, connecting through JFK. It was very early in the morning when we took off from Syracuse. The flight attendant told us all before takeoff, "Our flight into JFK is expected to take about an hour and five minutes, but our captain claims he can get us there in 45." I looked at my watch. Yeah, right, I thought. We touched down at JFK in exactly 45 minutes. The pilots came out smiling, talking about how they knew there was a shortcut.
They had the whole cabin laughing. It was great.
