An airplane pilot bought his passengers pizza. The pilot works for a U.S. airline. His flight was delayed for five hours. He was hungry so he ordered 50 family-sized pizzas for himself and his 157 passengers. He paid for them himself, but the airline gave him the money back. He told his passengers: "Ladies and gentleman, Frontier Airlines is…one of the cheapest airlines…but your captain is not cheap. I just ordered pizza for the entire plane."

The pilot said his airline was like a giant family and his passengers are part of that. He said other pilots also buy food for passengers. The airline said many pilots often do special things for passengers. The pilot met the pizza delivery guy at the airport security area. He helped carry the pizzas back onto the plane. The pizza restaurant was surprised by the order. The pilot said on the phone: "I need to feed my whole plane."
