Southwest Airlines pilot holds plane for murder victim’s family
Every step of the way, hes on the verge of tears and trying to get assistance from both TSA and Southwest employees to get to his plane on time. According to him, everyone he talked to couldnt have cared less. When he was done with security, he grabbed his computer bag, shoes and belt and ran to his terminal in his stocking feet.
When he got there, the pilot of his plane and the ticketing agent both said, Are you Mark? We held the plane for you and were so sorry about the loss of your grandson.
The pilot held the plane that was supposed to take off at 11:50 until 12:02 when my husband got there.
As my husband walked down the Jetway with the pilot, he said, I cant thank you enough for this.
The pilot responded with, They cant go anywhere without me and I wasnt going anywhere without you. Now relax. Well get you there. And again, Im so sorry.
