World’s happiest flight! Passengers on this flight were surprised with a free ukulele gift

How about getting a musical instrument as a freebie on a flight? Well, passengers aboard a Southwest flight to Hawaii were in for a big surprise when they received a free ukulele and a free lesson.

As per the reports, passengers in the United States were surprised to find that their flight to Hawaii was not any ordinary journey, as Southwest Airlines offered all passengers a free in-flight ukulele lesson along with the musical instrument.

Guitar Centre, the music instrument retailer, organised the free ukulele lesson, and over the course of the six-hour flight, those onboard were taught how to play the entire “Hello, Aloha. How are you?” on Hawaii’s most famous instrument.

Revealing more about this happy experience, Alexandra Windsor, educational affairs specialist for Guitar Centre Lessons stated that he had taught students through Guitar Centre Lessons since 2014, but never ever in an aeroplane.

He also added that it was inspiring to see how quickly all passengers onboard were able to pick up the tunes on the ukulele, and many with almost no musical background.

Windsor also stated that the ukulele is an ideal instrument for beginners, and shows how fun and easy learning something new can be.

As soon as the plane touched down in the aloha state, all the passengers were allowed to depart with their special gift. Along with the musical instrument, they also got a carrying case to keep the ukulele safe.
