As air travel grows more uncertain amid the ongoing U.S. government shutdown, one Delta Air Lines pilot is reminding passengers — and millions online — that compassion and calm still go a long way.
00:00Before I left the house on this trip, my little one has learned the word ice cream,
00:03and she made me make sure I promised her to get her ice cream when I get back home from the trip.
00:07That being said, nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing unsafe, comes in between me and that little girl and her ice cream.
00:12I know we probably have quite a few nervous flyers today. It is perfectly understandable.
00:17I want to emphasize this aircraft does not move a single inch unless both my co-captain Michael and myself are absolutely certain it's safe to do so.
00:23Top that off, before I left the house on this trip, my little one has learned the word ice cream,
00:27and she made me make sure I promised her to get her ice cream when I get back home from the trip.
00:32That being said, nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing unsafe, comes in between me and that little girl and her ice cream.
00:37I know you guys probably have some similar plans, maybe not tonight, but probably tomorrow afternoon once we get you up for Raleigh.
00:42Please feel free to join our Wi-Fi and take care of picking out which place you guys are going to get ice cream
00:46or shoot your friends and family texts about what you guys are doing on the flight.
00:49It's going to be short. It should be a really nice day to go flying. We'll get you guys up there safely.
00:53Again, thank you so much for your help here in the boarding process. We'll get underway. Welcome aboard.
