6-Yr-Old Cancer Survivor Has Unforgettable Plane Ride Thanks To Flight Attendant.

A flight attendant announces that this little girl has beaten cancer.

One flight attendant went above and beyond to make a 6-year-old passenger feel like a VIP. During a recent plane ride, the Southwest Airlines employee gave a special shout-out to a girl named Jessa, who had recently beaten cancer. She was traveling with her family courtesy of the Make-A-Wish-Foundation. Jessa’s mom was touched by the gesture, which she recorded and shared on TikTok.

“Hi, everybody. If we could have your attention for just a few moments. We have a very, very special guest on board here today that we wanted to recognize,” the flight attendant announced. “Miss Jessa is six years old, about to turn seven. And she – are y’all ready for this? – has just beaten cancer and is now cancer-free. How do you like that?”

He concluded his message by wishing Jessa a long life and a happy future as the rest of the passengers cheered for the courageous little girl.

Watch the heartwarming announcement in the video below!

@Southwest Airlines, thank you for everything you did for Jessa on our way to and from her trip. Every flight crew we had was amazing, but our last trek home, they took the cake. We can’t thank you enough for being a huge part of our trip. 💛🎗️✨💪🏼 #MakeAWish #StrongLikeJessa #ChildhoodCancer #GiveKidsTheWorld #DisneyWorld #MagicKingdom #WelcomeHome
