Reply to comment by bakerzdosen in Air New Zealand conducts first flight in te reo Māori by donkeychaser1

Recently flew to NYC and it was my daughter's first flight, she's 9, she mentioned it to the cabin crew who was chatting to her. As we landed they handed her a certificate covered in stickers and signed by the cabin crew celebrating her first flight. She also got to hand out the lollies just before landing. It was so lovely. They also message during the night to see if you want hot panini's and chocolate cookies.

They did this for my partner who was an adult his first time flying. It was really nice of them!

That's lovely, I think it's great when adults get to celebrate 'firsts' and not be looked over cos we're grown up. Thanks for sharing.

A few years ago, I was visiting Charlotte for the first time, with my gf (she grew up nearby). Looking for something to do, I checked to see if the Hornets were playing. Sure enough, game time in one hour, two tram stops away. Let's go! My first NBA game.

After the game, we're making our way to the exit, when I see a group of small kids posing for a picture. The photographer had official Hornets gear on. The kids are holding a banner that says "Our First NBA Game!" So I walk up to the photographer and say "hey, it's my first NBA game too!" And the photographer says "well get in the picture!"

So on the Hornets IG feed, there is a picture of a bunch of 7 year olds and one 40-something slacker looking dude, with big smiles on their faces, at their first NBA game...
