New Delhi:
A mother of a 4-month-old baby, who was travelling on a flight for the first time, is winning hearts for her thoughtful gesture. She handed out 200 goodie bags to ease the journey of passengers travelling with her just in case her baby starts to cry.
The woman was travelling from Seoul, South Korea to San Francisco with her 4-month-old when she decided to distribute goodie bags containing ear plugs, candies along with a note that read, “Hello, I’m Junwoo and I’m four months old. Today, I am going to the US with my mom and grandmom to see my aunt. I’m a little bit nervous and scared because it’s the first flight in my life, which means that I may cry or make too much noise. I will try to go quietly, though I can’t make any promises. Please excuse me.”
''So my mom prepared little goodie bag for you! It has some candies and earplugs. Please use it when it’s too noisy because of me. Enjoy your trip. Thank you,’’ the note further read.
One of the passengers on the flight, Dave Corona, posted photos of the 'touching gesture', along with a caption that read, ''On a Ten-hour flight from Seoul Korea to San Francisco, a mother handed out more than 200 goodie bags filled with candy and ear plugs, in case her 4-month-old child cried during the flight. A very touching gesture by the mother but as you know when you have kids expect the unexpected. Not a peep out of the kid.''
It did not take long for the post to go viral, with many showering praises on the mother for her considerate gesture towards the fellow passengers. 'That was a nice gesture, but I think people need to be more understanding on flights and not make parents and their children feel so unwelcome on flights. We were all babies at one point in life,' one woman wrote.
'This is just sad. She doesn't need to do such a thing. We people should understand her,' another added.
