RARE EGGS SAVED BY FLIGHT ATTENDANT

Alaska Airlines flight attendant saves rare flamingo eggs during flight; Zoo honors her with ...

SEATTLE  (KOMO)  —  An Alaska Airlines flight attendant was
recently honored by Seattle’s Woodland Park Zoo after saving
rare Chilean flamingo eggs on a flight last August.

A zoo official transporting rare was Chilean flamingo eggs from
Zoo Atlanta to Seattle’s Woodland Park Zoo when the incubator
keeping them warm stopped working.

Flight attendant Amber said “A passenger rang the call button
and asked if I would help keep some eggs warm.”

Alaska said Amber went to the galley, found some rubber gloves,
and filled them with warm water before bringing them to the zoo
official. The zoo officials then wrapped the gloves around the
eggs to make a makeshift, yet cozy nest.

Nearby plane passengers offered their coats and scarves for
extra insulation.

Amber and her granddaughter, Sunny (above) were honored guests of Woodland Park Zoo, and treated to an exclusive
tour that included a ‘meet and greet’ with the recently-
hatched chicks.
