When it comes to travel, the journey is just as important as the destination. And let us be honest - when you are flying, safety is always top of mind. But imagine having a pilot who strolls right into the cabin just to personally assure you of a safe landing. Sweet, right? Well, that is exactly what happened on a recent Delta Air Lines flight, and the internet can not stop talking about it. A passenger captured the wholesome moment on video, and it is now making the rounds on Instagram.

Standing in the aisle, the pilot gave a hilarious yet comforting announcement. He said, "Once again, I can assure you that we are going to do things absolutely 100% safe, secure, and get you there. I am married - 33 years. My wife, 4 kids, 2 dogs, 8 chickens. She is tired of going out and taking care of those chickens in the cold." He continued, "She wants me to get home Friday morning. If I don't get home by Friday, she is going to kill me. So, I can assure you, we are going to get there." The text overlay on the now-viral video read: "Our Delta pilot assuring us that we will arrive safely because he has to get home to take care of his 8 chickens."
