Grandmother & granddaughter flight attendant duo

Cynthia and Hanna Heck
 
Flight attendant Cynthia Heck finished up the safety demonstration and walked through the cabin, confirming passengers were ready for takeoff.

She took a moment to smile and greet each traveler individually. Fellow flight attendant Hannah Heck watched on, admiringly. Then, Hannah made a spontaneous announcement over the speaker.

“Does everyone see this sweet little lady wearing the life vest? That’s my grandma. So everyone better be extra nice to her,” she said.

The passengers laughed, some clapped. Many looked at Cynthia disbelieving, struggling to imagine she had an adult granddaughter.

A few minutes later, Hannah was doing her safety compliance checks, and Cynthia took the opportunity to grab the microphone and cheekily retaliate.

“Everyone, ask Hannah who did her laundry last night,” Cynthia said, over the loudspeaker.

This announcement got an even bigger reaction than the first, and confirmed to the passengers that this duo were-for sure-related.
