on your kid’s birthday, take advantage of this unique celebration opportunity.  Recently, I was on an Alaska Airlines flight and the pilot ~ yes, the big man on board ~ came over the loudspeaker and announced that a very special birthday boy was seated in F8 (Foxtrot Eight) and that he wanted to send out a special pilot salute to the young man.  Simultaneously, a butterscotch sundae was served to the birthday boy using the glass ware from the First Class cabin.  As he was presented with his special treat, the whole plane of people sang him Happy Birthday and clapped along.  He loved it…how easy! 

Parents, if you and your child are flying on his birthday…think ahead and tell the crew!  It could be a really special birthday flight!!
