Pilot And Crew Order Pizza to Plane’s Door for Passengers After Flight Gets Grounded
Nothing can actually compete with the feeling you have while enjoying your favourite food. Love them or hate them, you have to admit that in-flight meals are well and truly in a league of their own.
A flight being grounded due to bad weather shouldn’t be well, the passengers of an Air Canada flight from Toronto to Halifax had a reprieve from the dreary wait that accompanies such delays.
The Air Canada Flight 608 encountered bad weather on its Monday night journey, the pilot was forced to divert the aircraft to the town of Fredericton, where it sat on the tarmace for several hours.
When the passengers expected a terrible day ahead, the pilot came to the rescue.
The passengers and the crew had no option other than waiting inside the plane. This is when the pilot ordered 23 cheese and pepperoni pies from a local restaurant and treated everyone with it.
This is not the first time that Air Canada crew have done their best to keep flight delays from ruining their passengers’ moods.
Passengers also took to social media sites to post about and appreciate the gesture.
