"Amma...very special guest"
Once boarding was complete, the pilot-son made an announcement over the in-flight communication system, which is otherwise used by the cabin crew members to deliver travel and safety instructions.
The clip recorded the incident from the mother-son duo's international flight. “I have a very special guest on board this flight. This person is someone whom I always take to the grocery store or the salon, and today, it’s the first time I’m taking her to another country", he said.
He then revealed with a smile, “This special person is none other than my mom".
"You can't tell my driving is bad"
Ending his announcement in a playful way, Ashwath added, “Amma, this time you cannot tell that my driving is bad.”
Though cockpit access is typically restricted, the video also featured a photo of Aswath with his mother inside the cockpit.
Aswath posted the video on Instagram with the caption: “Cleared for takeoff – with the most special passenger on board! Welcome onboard, Mom.”
The video has gone viral with 1.8 lakh likes and more than eight million views.
