Overheard in IFR Magazine's "On the Air"

Heard on the scanner over Adelaide, South Australia:

Airliner (I think it was a Qantas, but I didn't hear the start of the transmission):
"We won't need to divert into Adelaide now. The passenger is feeling much better now that he has been moved to business class."

Controller:
"Amazing what recuperative powers business class has."
