Hal decided he would spend the holiday with her. So, he is flying on each of her flights today and tomorrow around the country to spend time with his daughter for Christmas.
What a fantastic father! Wish you both a very Merry Christmas!

Hal’s daughter Pierce Vaughan, explained on Facebook how her dad used his family flight benefits on Delta Airlines:
Dad’s first trip using his benefits was a success! A special thanks to all of the patient, wonderful gate agents around the country and my perfect crew. He made it on every flight and even got first class RSW-DTW (Christmas miracle).
Shoutout to Mike Levy for being a great first class passenger & helping us to understand how cool this actually is!
According to Delta’s website, employee benefits include free or reduced travel for spoused, minor dependent children, and parents.
What a heart-warming story!
