His [freight / flight] from Washington D.C. to Denver was delayed. He felt hungry and thought he would get a pizza [delivery / deliverer] from a Domino's Pizza restaurant [near / nearly] the airport. Then he thought his passengers would also be hungry, so he [ordering / ordered] 50 family-sized pizzas. He paid out of his own [pocketed / pocket] , but the owner of the airline said he would give Mr Bradner the money for [them / the] pizzas. He announced on board: "Ladies and gentleman, Frontier Airlines is known for being [one / once] of the cheapest airlines in the US, but your captain is not cheap. I just ordered pizza for the [entire / entirely] plane."
