The story talks about a flight attendant who was faced with a challenge on a flight. A passenger was having a fit about the fact that they did not have a window seat. Now flight attendants are some of the most patient people on the planet. They have to deal with whiny, and cranky people. So this flight attendant draws a window on a piece of paper, and stuck it next to the individual. People absolutely loved the action, the action has been spread all over twitter. Many people praise the flight attendant saying, “That’s really clever. Great thinking by the attendant.” The hashtag #whereismywindow has been trending on twitter.

This is a feel good story. The story shows how a flight attendant rather than getting mad at the individual just gave them a “window”. The story also brings up the grudge people have against flights that take away window. The story shows an interesting angle of people getting their small children on a flight with hopes of a window and not getting it. The story also shows how big stories can blow up on social media. The problem can be caused more and more as the flights cram more seats into the cabin of a plane.
