Thanks to the generosity and support of our airline partners, wish families experience comfort, care, and joy from the moment their wish trips begin. 

"We flew with Alaska Airlines and the pilots did a shout-out and said, ‘Eero, help us—we think we see some pterodactyls up ahead!’ It was really cute.” 

– Jessica, Eero’s mom

“Although it was an early flight for the kids, the warm welcome announcement from Southwest Airlines and the photo op during boarding instantly woke Bryiant from his sleepy haze. From that moment on, [we] could see the twinkle in his eyes every morning, as he eagerly prepared for the day’s activities.” 

– Gary, Bryiant’s dad 

“We were greeted by Virgin Airlines staff and I got to sit in the cockpit. For someone who wanted to be a pilot, it was surreal. They couldn’t have been nicer. They presented me with pilot wings and a Star Wars book signed by the staff.” 

– Max, wish alum 

“Southwest Airlines had us board early and introduced us to the flight crew. The pilots even let the kids go in and check out the cockpit. It was a super fun group of folks on the plane.” 

– Amelia, Joshua’s mom
