We have all heard that even a small act of kindness can warm your heart and bring the biggest smiles. If you don’t believe you can try it and you will see how magical the feeling is. One such recent incident that happened with an old couple who were boarding their first flight together will melt your heart. As they were old and this was their first experience they didn’t know the boarding procedure so a humble man helped them board the flight and also bought them food.
A Linkedin user who goes by the name Amitabh Shah took to the social media platform to post about it the incident that happened at the Delhi airport and it’s really touching. He was traveling to Kanpur from Delhi Airport last week when he spotted an old couple and decided to help them.
Shah wrote “This awesome but tired couple in the picture had a long journey – came from a remote village in UP, rode a bus for 8 hours to get to the Delhi Airport, and then boarded a flight to Kanpur with me. I saw them in the boarding area completely clue-less and could tell it was there the first time & they didn’t understand English. I walked up to them with a smile and asked them to simply follow me. They thought I worked for the airline.”
he further added “Inside the flight they were seated just in front of me. The aunty asked me – ‘Can you pls take our picture and send it to our daughter who has a phone with Whatsapp – so she knows we are safe?’ I took this pic & sent it. When the Airhostess came to serve food, they declined but clearly seemed hungry and thirsty for hours. I told the air hostess to give them paneer sandwiches and juices & to tell them it was complimentary as they were lucky customers to win a free meal. Of course, I paid for it when they were not seeing it. They simply ‘smiled’ at me as we landed and went our own ways.”
