A kind and generous co-passenger travelling from Virgin Atlantic gifted his first class seat to a an elderly woman of 88 years of age, perhaps as an early Christmas giveaway.
The flight’s stewardess, Leah Amy shared the whole story along with the pictures of the travelling duo on her Facebook, reminding the world yet again about the simple joys of giving.
Here’s what Amy wrote on her Facebook post, along with pictures of the duo’s travel:
“Of the hundreds of flights I’ve operated, I’ve had the pleasure of looking after footballers, supermodels and some Hollywood movie stars but let me tell you about my two favorite passengers EVER! Jack and Violet 💜 (I wish she was called Vera or Rose).”
The attendant further recollected witnessing the event on her FB post:
“Jack and his family purchased seats In our upper-class cabin for a flight home from New York, but when he got on board, Jack went and found violet in economy and swapped seats with her. He then sat on the row of seats directly next to the economy toilets and never made a peep or asked for anything the rest of the flight. No fuss, no attention, literally did it out of the kindness of his own heart, no one asked him too.”
Just a simple act of giving that brought precious joy to the woman.
“You should have seen her face when I tucked her in her bed after supper. She said her daughter won’t believe her, and wanted a ‘selfie’ to prove it, but didn’t have a phone or an email address. These photos are getting sent in the post tomorrow, can you even cope”
Wish the world was full of more everyday-kind-acts like these.
We certainly need to hear these little stories every now and then.
