A mother was pleasantly surprised to discover that her son was the pilot of the plane on which she had booked her flight. It is often said that the success of children is the pride of parents, and that’s exactly what you’ll discover in this touching testimony.

On the internet, a scene both touching and glorious has captured attention: that of a proud and reassured mom traveling aboard a plane piloted by her beloved son. With shining eyes and a confident voice, we appreciate the welcoming words of her son: « Welcome aboard, Mom, » as relayed in a video posted on YouTube.

On an ordinary day, something extraordinary happened. A pilot organized a surprise for his mother who was about to board the plane he was piloting.

Moments before takeoff, he emerged from the cockpit to perform the passenger information and warning protocol. In a TikTok video, he is seen speaking into a microphone, welcoming passengers, wishing them a good trip, providing information about the weather, and safety instructions. He also took the opportunity to introduce his team who would serve the travelers on board.


As he followed the pre-takeoff protocol, a woman appeared hurriedly in the aisle, guided by a flight attendant to her seat. At that moment, the woman realized with great surprise that the pilot was her own son, and a proud smile spread across her face. The pilot seized the opportunity to introduce his mother to the other passengers and pay tribute to her…

Reunions between mother and son are always special, especially when they take place on board an airplane. The young man made them even more memorable with sweet and kind words, while paying homage to his mom in front of all the passengers.

« There is also another very important person on board, she is walking up the aisle right now. It’s my mother! She doesn’t know that I am her pilot today… which is super exciting! For 27 years, she has been an incredible mother. It’s her first trip with me today and she didn’t know I was going to be here, so I invite her to settle in first class. Welcome everyone aboard and welcome to my mother, » he declared.
