NEW YORK (FOX 5 NY) - A man took to Facebook to draw attention to the father who spent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day flying aboard Delta planes where his daughter was working as a flight attendant.

His post has gone viral.

Mike Levy wrote: "I had the pleasure of sitting next to Hal on my flight back home. His daughter Pierce was our flight attendant who had to work over Christmas ☹️. Hal decided he would spend the holiday with her. So, he is flying on each of her flights today and tomorrow around the country to spend time with his daughter for Christmas. 😊. What a fantastic father! Wish you both a very Merry Christmas!"

Hal's daughter is flight attendant Pierce T. Vaughan.

She thanked her dad for flying with her and Levy for shining a light on a positive news story.

"Look ma we made it Kimberly Hal Vaughan 🤗 Dad’s first trip using his benefits was a success! A special thanks to all of the patient, wonderful gate agents around the country and my perfect crew. He made it on every flight and even got first class RSW-DTW (Christmas miracle). Shoutout to Mike Levy for being a great first class passenger & helping us to understand how cool this actually is!"
