A muslim passenger flying from Gorakhpur to Delhi was left in awe by a heartwarming gesture made by an Air India crew member.
With the holy month of Ramadan and fasts observed by Muslims around the world, a passenger shared his story of flying with Air India where he was surprised the Air hostess by a tray full of food.
Rifat Jawaid shared how he just wanted some water for his Iftar meal but was taken by a surprise when an air hostess working with Air India came by and offered him 2 whole sandwiches and a water bottle and asked him to not be hesitant in case he wanted more.
Sharing the story on Twitter he tweeted:
On my way back to Delhi in @airindiain Alliance from Gorakhpur: Iftar time was nearing so I walked up to cabin crew member Manjula, asked for some water. She gave me a small bottle. I asked, “can I pls have 1 more bottle since I’m fasting?”
Manjula replied, “why did you… pic.twitter.com/QaMoAR5CqC— Rifat Jawaid (@RifatJawaid) May 18, 2019
..leave your seat?You pls return to your seat.” Minutes later she arrived with two sandwiches and said, “please don’t hesitate to ask for more.”
Of course I didn’t need more. They were more than adequate for me. What was the most satisfying was Manjula’s heartwarming gesture. pic.twitter.com/DeXhvMnxwJ— Rifat Jawaid (@RifatJawaid) May 18, 2019
And twitterati surely could not hold in their emotions at this.
Air India has always been like that. It’s staffed by common folks who have a immense sense of warmth and hospitality. Most important they have always been the airline with empathy. Way to go @airindian
