During a recent journey aboard Air India, veteran parliamentarian Shashi Tharoor found himself sharing the same cabin crew on two consecutive flights a coincidence that quickly caught public attention. In a post on the social‑media platform X, Tharoor described the experience as heartening and marvelling at the warm professionalism of the crew.
Tharoor said the encounter felt as though he were “coming home”, when he saw familiar faces in the air and was greeted once again by flight attendants who had served him before. His post included a photograph taken with the two crew members and extended thanks to Air India for recruiting such dedicated staff.
The post resonated widely, garnering praise from social‑media users who applauded both the crew’s service and Tharoor’s gracious acknowledgement. One user described it as “a delightful surprise” and commended Air India’s service quality in light of the incident.
Tharoor currently represents the Thiruvananthapuram constituency in the Indian Parliament. The light‑hearted story shines a gentle spotlight on the often‑behind‑the‑scenes hospitality of airline crew and how even small moments of recognition can leave a lasting impact.
