Twitter is melting over an image of a Pakistan International Airlines official (PIA) official soothing a passenger’s crying baby on a flight. Netizens can’t help but laud the PIA employee.
As the internet is gushing over the heart-warming moment, Fakhar-e-Alam shared the identity of the kind-hearted cabin crew.
A friend onboard @Official_PIA ISD to KHI early morning flt yesterday shared this. A baby was crying non stop, the mother was exhausted & stressed, she couldn’t comfort the child.

Since PIA is an airline was usually known for its poor service, people were pleasantly surprised by the gesture.
Thats amazing and credit goes to this individual only as other staff on flights is not helpful at all when it comes to babies. Not just for PIA but other local airlines as well.

I recently travelled on PIA . A child was crying, Every one around was frustrated as his mother was not able to stop his crying. There was no Mr Tauheed aboard .PIA made the whole flight suffer but didn’t bother to offer the child any toy or something little to eat.

Tauheed, the cabin crew manager on board, had carried the baby in his arms and walked up and down the aisle to help the baby fall asleep. The senior flight crew personnel helped soothe the baby to sleep when its mother was too exhausted.
Cute and very nice gesture!!!

Even the kindest people are not to keen to deal with a fussy baby in a metal tube flying in the sky. Yet, this man went the extra mile to make the flight comfortable for everyone.
great Baby Sitter to fly with 🙏

Some Netizens even called on PIA to reward Tauheed, in order to give incentives to and encourage such response.

This credit of this incident goes to the gentleman as a person and as a human. Otherwise, the overall culture of PIA is not very welcoming!!! I wish this incident becomes a practice and not an exception.

Everyone agreed that such incidents should not be an exception and such practices should be made a norm.
A very rare and strange step by PIA. I cud never expect this from PIA staff. As per my experience they are arrogant. Anyways. Thumbs up for the guy 👍

Some of sporadic humane incidents at @Official_PIA are really commendable but they need to change their hospitality culture. It’s not one of the best as it used to be once.
