The video, which was uploaded a few days ago, has already been viewed by over 16 million viewers and is still counting, with so many likes and comments. Responses to this in the comment section are uproarious, as they say they are so glad to have watched such a beautiful moment.

“Priceless moments, even though she’s too young to understand,” quipped a viewer. Others said they would really like to be part of the experience because “I will pay extra to be on this flight, and I work for another carrier.”

“A father’s pride to be a pilot living so much love is beautifully shown. Just beautiful,” “Ellie Rose is very lucky to have this pilot as your father,” and many more comments flowed in admiration. Feel the senses in all its cute and adorable Ellie Rose,” wrote all viewers.
