Tauheed Ahmed’s reaction on the viral video
When asked what he feels about the viral video, the officer replied that he had no idea it would become so famous. He said, “I had no idea someone is recording me. I don’t know who took my pictures or made me viral. It is a part of our duty to take care of our passengers. It is a part of our training to ensure their safety on a flight, and take care of their needs.”
The officer shared that it all began when a woman boarded the plane with two kids. One of them was an infant. The child was crying a lot and people on the flight were very disturbed so he sent two female flight attendants to console the child. However, the baby won’t stop crying.
“Seeing the helplessness of the woman, I offered help and held the child in my arms,” said Ahmed.
Tauheed Ahmed is a highly committed officer and said that it is the duty of the cabin crew to serve the passengers to the best of their abilities.
