Good morning everybody, this is your captain speaking. I would like to welcome you on board today on this Sonic Airways flight. My name is Max Temple and my co-pilot today is Susan O’Connor. The chief flight attendant is Gregory Smith and on behalf of the whole crew, we would like to welcome you on board flight GA 1456 heading to New York. We expect to arrive in New York in approximately 6 hours and 15 minutes. As we unfortunately had a 15 minute delay at London Heathrow, our arrival time will be later than planned. At the moment, we are flying at an average altitude of 34,000 feet. The local time in New York is 7:30am and the weather is rather sunny and clear. The current temperature in New York is 20°C. We will announce the gate number shortly before landing. For those with connecting flights, we will announce further details prior to landing at JFK airport

.

The seatbelt sign has been switched off but I would recommend you re-fasten it while seated. Please make sure your seat is in the upright position and please be aware smoking is not allowed on this flight. We have some fantastic films available on board the flight today. ‘Inception’ will be played shortly so ask one of the flight attendants for a set of headphones if you do not have any. Later on, we will also have the thriller ‘White House Down’.



The flight staff will come around shortly serving food and drink. For those who requested a hot meal on board today, we have three delicious options available. Drinks are all inclusive on this flight so feel free to ask a flight attendant for a drink if you find yourself getting thirsty.



Once again, I would like to sincerely thank you for travelling with Sonic Airways today. We wish you a pleasant flight and an enjoyable trip in New York, the Big Apple. Now sit back, relax and enjoy the flight.
