The name Spirit Airlines may not be in the high ranks of a household name in the airline business compared to the larger airlines in the business.
Maybe it is just a coincidence that Spirit Airlines employee Robert Dillon decided to join a group of cheerleaders who were stranded at the Myrtle Beach International Airport in South Carolina on April Fools Day when their flight from Myrtle Beach to Atlantic City was delayed due to bad weather in the area.
If there is one thing that passengers do not like being stranded inside an airport, is the long delays waiting to board their airplane to get to their destination safe and sound by sitting around on their seats.
The cheerleaders were in Myrtle Beach as part of a cheerleading competition that finished. I guess Robert decided to make the lives of the stranded passengers better by joining in a dance routine with the cheerleaders to “The Cupid Shuffle” which benefits both the cheerleaders and Robert in terms of getting some good exercise and keeping the passengers happy as they can be.
Thanks to the power of social media, Robert has gained a lot of fans when he was seen dancing with the cheerleaders before they could get onboard their flight back to Atlantic City New Jersey that same day on April Fools Day.
Beats the boredom of waiting and great story
Staying active during a down period is great for the mind and spirit.
It only takes a moment to help others in life. If nothing else to bring a smile.
That is so true since what Robert did was entertain the passengers at the airport so time could run faster having fun with the cheerleaders.
when I walked out of Myrtle Beach Airport, the humidity was so bad I thought someone gut punched me. it was like breathing soup…
That was just terrible.
I don’t handle humidity well. A dry heat is fine…
I see your viewpoint now about humidity.
That is true since the media like to point out a few rotten apples in the airline industry these days.
seems like there are more than a few…
The ones who do not care to do their jobs right. Just work for their paycheck without making an effort to earn the respect of their customers.
to be fair, that’s endemic of most employees
My nephew just do not like it when some of his colleagues sit on the sidelines while he works like a dog.
A great way to serve and entertain passengers! Robert Dillon is definitely someone who is creative in reading and utilizing situations.
Robert is indeed one of the good employees at Spirit Airlines.
Awe, how cute! I bet he has. Good going and way to keep things light right?
I can imagine that time flew faster when the kids and Robert were doing their dancing routines while waiting for the plane to leave the airport.
Well, that is good to hear. Great service is hard to find.
That is true since a lot of people look at the way they earn a living as one way to pay their bills and not put any effort to make others happy.
