This is my last day: Pilot's emotional speech

Ceremonially ending his 32-year-long career with the airlines, he took hold of the announcing mic in the plane and quoted, 

"This is my last day at American Airlines - 11,835 days."

He also acknowledges his family and friends sitting in the cabin, who are way too giddy and excited at their loved one's exceptional career milestone. They couldn't be happier for him. He playfully mocks their excitement on the mic saying, 

"They've been a little rowdy, but we're going to have a good time and get you to Miami as fast as we can."

It was visible that the captain was embarrassed in the most adorable way possible, but his homie's reaction made the ceremony even more special. 

Post this, the captain addresses his daughter and his co-pilot for today. He was delightfully proud of his daughter for taking his legacy forward. 

"I am lucky enough to have my daughter on board as my co-pilot."

"Why did this make ME cry," asks social media 

Commenters below the video leave salutary remarks and wishes for the captain. Most of them throw in "wows" and "congratulations," while others wish him a "fun, relaxed and peaceful retirement."

A widowed wife even reminisced about her days of working with the Airlines along with her late husband. "My late husband and I used to work with the American Airlines ourselves. Congratulations!"

While some delulu Genz wrote, "Thinking into the future when this could be my daughter and husband." The heartfelt reactions made the memory more wholesome.
