Last
year Canadian airline WestJet made the prestigious Parallax Views Holiday
Flash Mobs list, as you may recall. They seemed like a company that knows
how to have a good time.
And, of
course, breaking up the tension at airports, especially during the stressful
holiday travel season is always a good thing. As long as it doesn’t disrupt the
actual takeoff and landing schedule.
But I
believe they’ve topped themselves.
This
year they picked a couple of Toronto-to-Calgary flights to give their
passengers just that little bit extra: they had a virtual Santa Claus ask what
they wanted for Christmas at Toronto, and by the time they arrived in Calgary,
the gifts came out—wrapped—onto the baggage carousel.
The
gifts ranged up to and including a big-screen TV.
Take a
look:
(I’m
betting the guy who asked for socks and underwear wishes he could have a
do-over.)
Frankly,
it looks to me like the WestJet employees who went shopping and wrapping had at
least as good a time as the passengers.
I wonder
what they’ll do next year?
