WestJet Christmas Miracle: real-time giving

  • 0:02 - 0:04
    'Twas a night before Christmas...
  • 0:04 - 0:06
    and all across the land...
  • 0:06 - 0:10
    the good folks of WestJet
    had a miracle planned.
  • 0:13 - 0:17
    On the eve before flying,
    the guests were in their beds...
  • 0:18 - 0:21
    ..visions of traveling danced in their heads.
  • 0:22 - 0:26
    While out on the runway
    something secret had arrived...
  • 0:26 - 0:28
    ..it was left in the lounge.
  • 0:29 - 0:31
    'Twas a Christmas surprise!
  • 0:47 - 0:48
    Hello, there!
  • 0:49 - 0:51
    Is that--is that Cohen?
  • 0:51 - 0:52
    (mom and child laugh)
  • 0:52 - 0:55
    What are you looking
    for Christmas this year, Cohen?
  • 0:56 - 0:59
    (Santa) A choo-choo train? Ho! Ho! Ho!
  • 0:59 - 1:01
    A classic! Do you like Thomas?
  • 1:05 - 1:08
    Well, what would mommy
    and daddy like for Christmas?
  • 1:08 - 1:10
    -A big TV.
    -Yeah, a big TV.
  • 1:10 - 1:13
    (Santa) Ho! Ho! Ho! A big TV!
  • 1:14 - 1:15
    You're looking fabulous!
  • 1:16 - 1:17
    Well, I need to...
  • 1:17 - 1:20
    It's okay if you just want
    to stare at me as well!
  • 1:20 - 1:21
    Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho!
  • 1:21 - 1:24
    What I need is new socks and underwear.
  • 1:24 - 1:26
    An Android tablet.
  • 1:27 - 1:28
    (Santa) Is that William beside you?
  • 1:29 - 1:30
    And Cameron?
  • 1:34 - 1:35
    Some Santa boots.
  • 1:35 - 1:37
    A Doc McStuffins doll.
  • 1:40 - 1:44
    While the guests told their Christmas
    wishes to good old Saint Nick,
  • 1:44 - 1:48
    WestJetters took notes
    and got ready to shop quick!
  • 1:48 - 1:52
    It was a great rush
    with the two flights in the air...
  • 1:52 - 1:55
    to get all those presents,
    not a moment to spare!
  • 1:55 - 1:59
    ♪ (upbeat Christmas music plays)♪
  • 2:14 - 2:15
    Okay, Thomas. Let's get it!
  • 2:27 - 2:28
    (pilot) Thanks for flying with us at WestJet.
  • 2:29 - 2:31
    Sit back, relax, and enjoy
    the rest of your flight.
  • 2:31 - 2:32
    (man snores)
  • 2:32 - 2:35
    ♪ (upbeat Christmas music plays) ♪
  • 2:38 - 2:40
    (cheers)
  • 2:59 - 3:00
    But was everything ready?
  • 3:01 - 3:06
    We all had to wait for the moment
    of truth at carousel eight.
  • 3:08 - 3:11
    (alarm sounds)
  • 3:31 - 3:32
    Ho! Ho! Ho!
  • 3:33 - 3:34
    Merry Christmas!
  • 3:54 - 3:55
    Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho!
  • 4:02 - 4:03
    No way!
  • 4:03 - 4:05
    (everyone laughs and cheers)
  • 4:21 - 4:24
    -(Santa) Where is the Heath family?
    -Oh my god!
  • 4:29 - 4:33
    The guests never expected
    what they asked of Saint Nick...
  • 4:33 - 4:36
    ..would actually appear.
    It was all quite a trick!
  • 4:37 - 4:40
    A WestJetter would say,
    "It was more than mere fun."
  • 4:41 - 4:45
    "Miracles do happen
    when we all work as one."
  • 4:46 - 4:50
    We'll give Santa the last word
    on this most special night:
  • 4:50 - 4:54
    (Santa) Merry Christmas to all...
    and to all a good flight!
  • 4:55 - 4:56
    Ho! Ho! Ho!
