When this kind stranger in first class gave up his seat to a woman with a sick child, it went viral. Kelsey Zwick was stunned when a flight attendant on her American Airlines flight came up to her and said that there was a man in first class who wanted to switch seats.

Zwick was traveling from Florida to Philadelphia with her 11-month-old daughter, Lucy, for an appointment at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. Lucy uses an oxygen machine and this mom had to carry all of their bags plus the machine through the airport.

Jason Kunselman was the gracious stranger and when he spotted the young mother, he thought she would be more comfortable in first class. After switching seats, Zwick wasn’t able to thank Kunselman properly, so she took to social media to share the story.

“I cried my way up the aisle while my daughter Lucy laughed! She felt it in her bones too... real, pure, goodness. I smiled and thanked you as we switched but didn’t get to thank you properly. Sooo... thank you. Not just for the seat itself but for noticing. For seeing us and realizing that maybe things are not always easy. For deciding you wanted to show a random act of kindness to US. It reminded me how much good there is in this world.”

The post immediately went viral and the airline helped to reconnect the two strangers. Zwick was able give this kind man a heartfelt ‘thank you’ and promised to keep the chain of kindness going.
