There was no rough handling and a staff member is seen personally handing over a piece of luggage to another staff to load onto the truck.The video has since gone viral with over millions of views and Thousands of shares.
The online community praised the staff for showing respect to the passengers’ belongings, for taking pride in their work, and for showing good and caring service for others to follow.A spokesperson for ANA told AsiaOne: “We are thrilled to have our hard work recognised by the public.
