When it comes to flying, most of us know what to expect – safety cards, glossy travel magazines and maybe a snack tucked into the seat pocket. But one airline just broke the monotony in the coolest way possible.
A passenger recently took to X (formerly Twitter) to share something that instantly caught everyone's attention. On his Fly91 flight, instead of the usual inflight magazine, he found a collection of Amar Chitra Katha stories neatly stacked in front of his seat.
Along with a few snaps of the aircraft, he shared the moment by writing, “New airline unlocked. And instead of the usual in-flight magazines… they've stocked Amar Chitra Katha. Didn't expect it, absolutely loved it.”
The post quickly struck a chord with people online. Because let's be honest — when was the last time anyone saw Amar Chitra Katha on a plane? Between flight announcements and snack trays, the discovery of those classic comic books felt like a small yet special surprise that instantly took many back to childhood.
