The story, “Champagne flight” is written by Jill Norris in 1982. To be a grown up, you need to learn the basic rules, you need to stand out as a responsible person, be polite and not behave childish or for that matter, be one. Jill Norris specific highlights, how a teenage girl, wants to represent herself as an adult, and to be a grown up, even though she’s only a child.

“The narrator” or main character is about to take her exams, when her parents move to Washington, because the father got a new position at his job. While the parents are in Washington, “The narrator” lives with a couple, Mr and Mrs Widness, who lives across the street, so she can finish her exams, and then move to Washington. When “the narrator” has finished her exams she flies to Washington to live with her parents again. But the flight is not a normal flight. She is now on her own and she can now make new impressions, be an adult or whoever she wants to be. She meets a women on the flight, and she changes “the narrators” sight of being an adult.

In this story we have 2 main characters, Serena Sinclair and “the narrator” (not mentioned by name
The Narrator is the main character in the story, because she uses ‘I’ and ‘my’. “The narrator” is sixteen years old. “The narrator” is not fully grown up yet, and this becomes clear when Mr and Mrs Widness are sending “the narrator” away. They say to her “Don’t forget to check your connection in Minneapolis, and don’t forget that you’ll have a wait in Chicago” (line 12, page 1).
This tells us that she is not very grown-up yet, and she can’t live her own life without help from others. She’s used to being helped by her parents. Later in the story “the narrator” meets the other main character Serena Sinclair, and they talk a lot about career and how their lives have been so far.
