Flight Attendant Gives Mom a Break on Long Flight

Flight Attendant Helps Calm Crying Child On Airplane

When a young mother boarded a Hawaiian Airlines flight from Oahu to Los Angeles, she didn’t realize how much longer the already five-hour flight would be until her young son began to cry. For 45 minutes, she tried everything she could to calm her child, even as irritated looks from other passengers were flung her way. Finally, a flight attendant approached the exhausted mother and asked her if she minded if she held the child for a while. The mother agreed, and the child soon fell asleep in the flight attendant’s arms. Passenger, Rachel Yuen, shares the touching story and video on her Facebook.
