In Orazio Gentileschi's "Rest on the Flight into Egypt" (1628), TSA (Temptation of Saint Anthony) Airways' overworked Captain Joe Carpenter leaves the plane on auto-pilot while he sleeps off that one for the flight path. A wimpleless hostess meanwhile indulges a pensioner-like Messiah's nipple-craving in a statutory yet brief moment of cabin crew repose, prior to the distribution of courtesy bacon sandwiches to pilgrims on their way back from the Haj.

Hajees are certainly not allowed bacon or any other pork or lizard products for that matter, which just goes to show the cultural sensitivities of today's airlines.
