WestJet pulled off a big Christmas miracle recently. They fulfilled the Christmas wishes of 250 passengers.
A video is getting a lot of attention since in hit YouTube last weekend and it might may you tear up a little bit.
More than 250 passengers on two recent flights on the Canadian airline had their holiday requests answered. It took 175 WestJet volunteers to help pull off an amazing feet involving three airports. Before their flight, the passengers had the chance to speak to Santa Claus and tell them what they wanted for Christmas. They weren't expecting to actually get the gifts, but that's exactly what happened. When the passengers landed and gathered at the luggage claim to get their bags, they were instead surprised with wrapped gifts with their names on them. The gifts included everything the passengers asked for.
Before the flights landed, the WestJet workers and volunteers worked quickly to buy everything that the passengers told Santa they wanted. Some got toys, some got electronics, some got clothes and a couple even got a big screen TV.
Besides the generous task, WestJet said that if the video got more than 200,000 views, it would donate free flights to a family in need. The video has more than 13 million views and WestJet says it "will be working with Ronald McDonald House Charities Canada to select a family to donate flights to."
