Thinking about my flight over, I think I got こんばんは'd aboard along with a 'あしもとご注意ください’ then people were wafted left or right depending, but I can't remember the exact phrase.

I think it might be worth OP learning a few general phrases like she asked instead of questions. Things like, 'please put your seat/tray/window blind up' 'please go back to your seat/ put your seatbelt on' and 'please wait while I fetch a Japanese speaking member of staff'.

I think I know the plain forms, but I wouldn't like to provide it in keigo in case I mess it up. ^^
