The amazing WestJet Christmas surprise

How cool would it have been to be a passenger flying from Toronto this week with WestJet?

When unsuspecting passengers arrived to check in, Santa was beaming through a huge screen greeting them in the terminal and asking kids and their parents what they’d like him to bring. He was given all sorts of answers from a choo choo train to undies and socks to a big screen TV. They all boarded their flights, and look at what WestJet did… This, my friends, is how you go viral.

Warning: you might shed a sneaky tear.
