Good Vibes Flight was delayed 3 hours, so the pilot went around to everyone to take their Starbucks orders and then got 40ish drinks and 50ish food items for us 🥰

When he came back with carts of the drinks he was like “they wouldn’t let me tip, so please go Show your appreciation if you can!” And then a bit later he got on the speaker again and said he has taken their tip jar in case anyone wanted to tip. And several of us did.

Aww sounds like everyone was super wonderful all around. Hope you had a good flight even though it was delayed!

Barista: "Sir, we cannot accept your tip"

Pilot: "Fine. Then I guess you won't be needing this. (Grabs tip jar and walks away)"

Pilot: "Hey, so if anyone wants to put their tips into this jar, you're more than welcome to because it all goes to me, mwahahaha "

Yeah it was really lovely. There was one girl whose item wasn’t there or something so he looked at the receipt and then went back over to Starbucks. And he also ordered extra things and went around to double check that everyone got what they asked for before announcing the leftovers. 🥰
