Kid's "favorite flight ever" ✈️

Plus, dogs' best hero.

Good morning. 😁 Not many of us can say we enjoy sitting between strangers on planes, but one kid could not be happier about his recent experience! More below.

SUNDAY SPOTLIGHT

How Getting Separated On A Plane Turned Into Little Boy’s “Favorite Flight Ever”

Left image shows a boy traveling alone between two elderly men filling out his final four NCAA Brackets. Image shows a young man playing Roc-Paper-Scissors with his seatmate on his favorite flight.

Kylika Miller is a social media influencer. She does health and beauty tutorials and product endorsements. She also shares a wonderful relationship with her 12-year-old son, Darius. Recently, the pair shared a spring break vacation. On the flight, they were separated, but that resulted in Darius exclaiming that it was his best and favorite flight ever.

To add some context, Darius ended up “stuck” between two elderly gentlemen for the entire flight. That doesn’t exactly scream “best” or “favorite” though, but there is more to the story. Both of the men are grandfathers, and they adopted Darius immediately. The trio became fast friends and spent the entire flight engaged in conversation and activities. No wonder this is his favorite flight ever.

Wholesome, much?

Although the video is short, it shows the new friends playing a round of Rock, Paper, Scissors. The game of chance is a perfect pastime for a crowded airplane. They also worked on their NCAA brackets for the upcoming end of season tournaments. The two men made the flight enjoyable for Darius, which was a great relief for Ky.

These men may not have known how their flight would go when they boarded the airplane. But they saved the day and turned it into Darius’ favorite flight ever just by being normal grandpas. Ky and Darius went on to have a wonderful vacation, posting several videos during their trip. What began with the uncertainty of being separated turned into an amazing in-flight adventure.

How does the saying go? Strangers are just friends you haven’t met yet — or in this case, bonus grandpas!
