Frontier Airlines recently had a special guest on their flight from Florida to Puerto Rico—5-year-old Xavier Rivas who was preparing to ‘graduate’ from Kindergarten.
But because the graduation at his school was taking place whilst young Xavier was 35,000 feet above sea level, Frontier attendants stepped in to give him a special ceremony.
Calling his name from the intercom, they invited all the passengers to offer congratulations as Xavier walked down the aisle in a red cap and gown.
“He is missing his graduation, his Kindergarten graduation today. And because he chose to fly Frontier instead, we are giving him his graduation ceremony on this flight,” the attendant said.
Passengers were recording the special moment and many offered high-fives to the little guy, whose special day included a visit to the cockpit to meet the pilots, and some small presents as well.

“He was just beyond excited, like his face lit up,” Xavier’s mom, Janeiry Rivas, told Good Morning America. “He was super super excited, getting high fives from people and getting cheered on.”
