Miss Ghana 2025 Jutta Addo in a pose with the Qatar Airways cabin crew
Miss Ghana 2025, Jutta Ama Pokuah Addo, received a touching surprise from the cabin crew of Qatar Airways while en route to Hyderabad, India on Sunday to represent Ghana at the 72nd Miss World pageant.
During the flight, four flight attendants presented the beauty queen with a bright pink, handwritten card expressing their admiration and best wishes. The note was both warm and personal, capturing the spirit of cultural appreciation and encouragement.
“It is an honour to have you onboard today. You have already conquered hearts with your beauty and kindness, and we hope that you are able to fulfil your dreams as you step ahead in life,” the message read. It concluded, “We are proud of you Ma’am! A warm welcome to Hyderabad, Telangana.”
The card was signed by crew members Shreya, Saakshi, Sangita, and Ashweta, identified as part of the flight’s 6E1314 team.
Qatar Airways, renowned for its award-winning hospitality, encourages such personal touches to enhance the travel experience. Aviation experts describe gestures like this as rare but deeply memorable moments that can transform an ordinary flight into something unforgettable.
The heartwarming gesture has since attracted good reviews on social media, with Jutta Addo sharing a photo of the card and writing that she felt “so emotional” after receiving it. Members of Ghana’s pageant community said the crew’s kindness lifted their spirits ahead of one of the most important moments of her career.
Ghana’s participation in Miss World is more than just a pageant appearance—it’s an opportunity to showcase the country’s cultural richness, strength, and womanhood. The Qatar Airways crew’s sincere gesture served as a symbol of global goodwill, reinforcing the pride Ghanaians feel in their representative.
The incident also underscored the powerful role airlines play in soft diplomacy. Experts note that national carriers often function as ambassadors of their home countries. By offering thoughtful, personalized service, they help foster positive cross-cultural relationships and meaningful international connections.
In honouring Miss Ghana 2025 mid-flight, the Qatar Airways crew did more than welcome a VIP passenger—they celebrated the unity and warmth that can exist between nations, all at 30,000 feet above the ground.
