Couple Got Married on a Southwest Plane Midflight to Las VegasLove is literally in the air in this Southwest Airlines flight.As shared by the airlines' official Facebook account, Jeremy Salda and Pam Salda (nee Patterson) were on their way to get married in Las Vegas when their connecting flight - by Southwest's competitor, mind you - was canceled abruptly. Thankfully, a kind soul - who happened to be a minister - helped them get another flight with Southwest just less than an hour before it took off.On the air, the couple suddenly got a crazy idea to just officiate the wedding then and there. After all, the bride and groom were already in their wedding attire. Everyone aboard was immediately onboard : they dressed the minister who helped them get a flight for the occasion, a professional photographer took the wedding pictures, and one of the flight attendants acted as the maid of honor. With preparations in place, Pam walked down the plane’s aisle with the passengers as their witnesses.In a statement to NBC News, the airline company had this to say : "Southwest has been the love airline for nearly 51 years, and we always enjoy an opportunity to celebrate our customers in special ways.”Images: Kaitlyn Manzer#wedding #airplane #airlines #SouthwestAirlines #LasVegas

Car Crashed Into a Van During a Pedestrian Safety EventTalk about irony. In Las Vegas, a car rear-ended another vehicle when it stopped to allow a pedestrian in heart costume to cross the street. What’s with the costume you ask? The pedestrian was actually part of a police event promoting pedestrian awareness and safety, aptly named the “Have a Heart : Stop for Pedestrians” campaign.As the campaign volunteer was entering the marked crosswalk, the passing van actually managed to stop in time to allow him to pass through. However, the car behind it did not and it slammed into the van. The incident was the second time such a thing happened during an awareness event. In the first five weeks of 2022 alone, 7 people have died of traffic accidents in Las Vegas Valley. Well, this incident certainly proved the importance of such an awareness campaign.Image: Univision Nevada#CarAccident #car #van #pedestrian #LasVegas
