Grabaseat and KFC are seeking to recognize an anonymous individual who provided a generous act of kindness at Auckland Airport. The incident occurred during a travel disruption, where the unnamed person offered a large amount of KFC food to fellow travelers.

In recognition of this gesture, Grabaseat and KFC are offering the Good Samaritan domestic flights to any KFC location in New Zealand. Additionally, they will receive a $500 voucher from KFC.

Scott Carr, Air New Zealand's General Manager of Domestic, commended the passenger's actions: "Travel disruption can be stressful, but this generous soul decided to wing it and bring the joy. It's rare to see someone share a feast in the face of frustration, and we're cluckin' proud to reward them for spreading the love."

"We've all experienced those moments where a small act of kindness makes a big difference," added Carr. "This is one of those moments, and we think it deserves to be celebrated with a side of applause."
