Southwest Airlines Celebrates their Most Memorable Passenger from El Paso

Attention passengers, there's a very special guest on board today. He's a frequent flier and is currently winning over hearts while in the air!

Southwest Airlines recently took the time to shout out one of their favorite, and frequent, passengers, who happens to be just ten years old! His name is Alec, and he's kind of a celebrity of the friendly skies!

As Southwest Airlines explained, Alec and his mom fly Southwest from El Paso to Dallas and back every week. Alec has a love of aviation and he and the Southwest family have a ton of fun onboard! Alec has risen as a star, so much so that he now has his own Instagram documenting his adventures- @alecintheair.

Every flight, Alec has a routine that includes him introducing himself to the pilots as well as the rest of the crew. Alec also gets to hang out with the crew and quickly makes friends, or "bruhs" as he likes to call them. If you're aboard a Southwest Flight with Alec you'll be sure to sometimes see him pass out snacks, take drink orders and even make announcements!

Upon sharing the post, many also took the time to commend Southwest Airlines for being so accommodating to Alec and his mom.

And this is why I fly Southwest

It's obvious that Alec's positivity is spreading nothing but love and light in the friendly skies.

Next time you're aboard a Southwest flight and see a ten year old handing out snacks- be sure to give him a fist bump!
