Holiday travel is increasing as passengers across the United States begin their journeys. In Nashville, a Southwest Airlines gate agent added some excitement to the usual waiting time at the airport by organizing an impromptu fashion show.
Oscar Gonzalez, a Southwest Airlines Gate Agent, transformed the boarding area into a makeshift runway at Nashville Airport. This event, which featured both passengers and employees, went viral on TikTok. Gonzalez's goal is to create an atmosphere filled with happiness and love for travelers. He believes that when he acts as an emcee and engages everyone in gate games, passengers board faster.
Gonzalez shared his thoughts with Good Morning America: "It's a celebration that brings everyone together. Everyone is energized and grateful and I've noticed they board faster and happier when I do the gate games. I want anxiety to come down for everyone getting on these flights and if playing a family-friendly Disney song will help a mom board with her kids, I want to do that."
