A Pennsylvania woman who found out she was pregnant while vacationing in Las Vegas with her husband decided a pre-flight surprise would be the best way to break the news. Lisa Sadiwnyk had kept the news to herself for two days before the trip home, Fox 29 reported.

While waiting to board their flight back to Philadelphia, Lisa sought out two crew members and let them in on her plan. She wrote a secret message on a note that was slipped to the pilot during pre-boarding checks, the news site reported. Before taking off, the pilot came over the PA system with a special message.

“Okay folks, ready or not here we go. I got a note handed to me, I’m going to read it verbatim,” the pilot says in a video that has now gone viral. “Can I have your attention please, we would like to do something special for a lucky winner who won big here in Las Vegas, Nevada.”

“Now, we’d like to turn your attention to seat 29E, where you’ll find Eric who is traveling with his Lisa,” the pilot said. “Well Eric, although you didn’t strike it rich here in Las Vegas, you did hit the jackpot. Congratulations you’re about to be a dad!”

Fellow passengers erupt in applause as Eric can be seen smiling and kissing Lisa.
