Air India pilot Ashrrita Chinchankar made her mother’s retirement extra special indeed. Have a look!
In the course of our lives, there are many moments where we decide to do something special for our parents. Treating them to an expensive meal, gifting them items they have long desired, or taking them to a sporting or live musical event are just some of the things many of us have done at some point in our lives.
However, Air India pilot Ashrrita Chinchankar took it one step further. In a tweet that has gone viral, Chinchankar shared a heartwarming story of how she had the honour of flying her mother, an air hostess with the national carrier for 38 years, on her last day of service.
So happy and honoured to be able to pilot the one flight that mattered. It was my mom’s dream to have me pilot her last flight as an Air Hostess with @airindiain 🙂 As she retires after her glorious 38 years of service, I will be carrying on with her legacy ? #grateful #proud pic.twitter.com/zcUTNCENzj

They congratulated both Chinchankar and her mother and sought the latter’s reaction to hearing the announcement on the flight by her daughter. Chinchankar duly obliged by posting this video.
