【Hard Soap Hard Soap (1977)】

Traveling on Hard Soap Hard Soap (1977)an airplane is always an extraordinary experience, but nothing beats the excitement and terror of flying for the first time.

Even if you were too young to remember your first plane trip, you've probably flown multiple times since, so you're at least familiar with the process, right? Well that was not the case for Sue, a woman in her 60s, who just had her first ever experience on an airplane on Monday.

Captivated by Sue's genuine excitement upon boarding the plane, her seatmate, Elaine Filadelfo, decided to live tweet the first time flying experience to keep others informed of her amazing reactions.

On Monday, Filadelfo got settled on the plane for a short flight from Los Angeles to San Francisco, California. After chatting with her seatmate, she discovered that the woman beside her was taking her first flight everto surprise her daughter who had recently moved.

Filadelfo explained to her Twitter followers that the airline upgraded Sue's ticket, the pilot and crew came to greet her personally and drop some helpful tips and they even took photographs to document the exciting day.

In spite of the fact that the flight was delayed two hours (an unsurprising reality for frequent flyers) Filadelfo said Sue was overjoyed to be traveling, but caught a classic case of the jitters before take-off. It's okay, Sue ... we've all been there.
