It’s not every day you board a flight to find a guitar on your seat and someone willing to give you flying lessons, but that’s exactly what happened to those aboard Southwest Airlines, with the strange surprise spreading after the airline shared it in a tweet, where the airline shared A picture of a plane full of smiling passengers who were heading from Long Beach, California, to Hawaii, carrying a free ukulele they found on their seat with a pink suitcase, according to the New York Post.

The airline claimed it was possible to learn how to play the guitar in just 20 minutes, adding, “We teamed up with guitarcenter to surprise a flight full of customers flying from Long Beach, with a guitar and a lesson to learn to play, and by the time they got to Honolulu they were professionals.”

One of them said: “Oh my God, I knew there was a reason I should fly to the Southwest when I could, I’ve become a staunch fan of you at the expense of all the other airlines.”
