Definitely Not Available On Virgin Airlines
(I am a flight attendant. For parents travelling with babies or toddlers, we usually carry some soft toys shaped like a tiny airplane, with a simple mechanism that you wind up by pulling a string; while it unwinds, it makes the toy buzz and shake and move forward a little. A passenger approaches me.)
Passenger: “Hey, do you have those… You know, those vibrators? I want one for my baby.”
(It took me a second to figure out she meant the vibrating toy; I just hope I managed to keep my face straight. I had a good laugh with the crew in the galley later.)
