Narrative:
I was doing the beverage service in first class when the captain called me in the cockpit. Once in he said that we might need to do an emergency landing, because our right engine had an oil leak. He said we would only be flying with one engine and had to land in the nearest airport with a long runway. He wanted me to relate the information to other flight attendants in cabin attendant and be prepared for an emergency lnd, just incase we needed to evacuate. We did not have to evacuate at all; we landed in lax at approximately XB30 or XB36.
