Grown woman and 10-year-old girl share a flight and become BFFs in the most adorable way
After watching "The Parent Trap" and "playing Sephora" these two were inseparable.
Weāve heard plenty of airplane horror stories as of late, with a good chunk of those having to do with screaming babies and kids acting out. Itās enough to make anyone finding out theyāre traveling next to a kid tense up a bit.
Luckily, this ākid on a planeā story is nothing like that.
Back in June, realtor Samantha Purnell found herself on a flight sitting next to Jazzy, a 10 year old girl flying alone. What could have been two awkward hours of silence (or worse) instead became the most wholesome friendship ever, and it was all caught on video.
In a now-viral TikTok clip, we see that the pair watched āThe Parent Trap,ā āplayed Sephoraā (meaning Purnell let Jazzy peruse her makeup stash), and shared a snack of hard boiled eggsāthat last part because Jazzy "wouldn't take 'no' for an answer."
There was even a sweet moment when Jazzy called herself āuglyā and Purnell stepped into giving sisterly advice without missing a beat.
āDonāt you ever say that! Youāre stunning. Donāt ever, ever, ever, ever say that to yourself,ā she told her new bestie.
Watch below and tell me this doesn't have major sleepover vibes.

Viewers were quick to note how this flight would probably be a positive core memory for Jazzy.
āShe will remember this forever!!! You gave her a massive confidence boost at a really important stage in her life!!ā said one person.
āThis is every little girlās dream,ā added another.
The clip even made its way to Jazzyās aunt, who wrote, āThis is my niece and HER mom and I are very grateful for you! Jazzy was nervous to fly and you truly helped her so much!! Thanks for being there and being such an angel!! šššš„°š„°ā
But wait, thereās more!
Purnell conspired with Jazzyās mom to make a surprise reunion happen. Jazzy was told sheād be going on a fishing trip with her day, when in reality Purnell was going to scoop her up to spend the entire day together. How sweet is that?!?!?
In that video, Jazzy screams with delight, saying āIām so happy!ā while tears flow.
The girlās day then consisted of a Starbucks trip, more Sephora makeup (obviously), dancing, and fashionista fit check.
At one point, Jazzy even got to share her side of how they became BFFs.

āI felt really nervous. I started crying. I thought the plane was going to crash or something because the plane started shaking so much, and I said āOkay, Iām going to tell you my whole life story.ā And then we just started talking and then we became best friends,ā she said.
Sometimes sisters are born into the same family, and other times they simply appear in each otherās livesā¦or in this case, on their flights. And we are so so here for this unexpected sisterhood.
