Spirit Airlines employee thrills passengers by dancing with cheerleaders during delay
Spirit Airlines employee Robert Dillon channeled the name of the airline last week when he danced with a group of cheerleaders trying to pass the time during a flight delay.
"A @SpiritAirlines employee helping our cheerleaders pass sometime (sic) during our delay!" Twitter user Kristie Brown wrote, along with a video of all the fun.
Passengers were waiting to board a flight at Myrtle Beach International Airport (MYR) in South Carolina. Dillon joined the group while they were dancing to "Wobble Baby," learning the routine.
"When I jumped in on it, I don’t think anyone was expecting it − that’s when they began to cheer and really get into it," Dillon told Yahoo Lifestyle. "People started puling their phones out and recording."
Spirit responded in a reply tweet: "Thanks for sharing, Kristie! We hope to welcome you again soon." The airline later quoted Brown's post, identifying Dillon and giving him a "huge shout out."
"Our flights are mostly on time, but when they aren’t…we make the best of it! Huge shout out to Robert Dillon at @flyMYR who kept our Guests entertained while they patiently waited to board their flight!" the post read.
