In a TikTok post, a MYAirline staff captured her final moments before the company announced its suspension, shedding light on the emotional turmoil faced by airline employees during such difficult times.
Under the TikTok username @cecilia_thristcher0, the MYAirline staff provided a glimpse into the heart-wrenching experience she endured on the fateful day. The journey began as early as 11 PM on October 11th when the employees received notice that the flights scheduled for the following day would be canceled.
The real blow came at 3:30 AM on October 12th when MYAirline officially declared that it was going "offline," effectively signaling its suspension and imminent closure. Despite the grim announcement, the staff persevered, continuing to fulfill their duties until the final flight landed at 4:37 AM.
By 7 AM, the MYAirline staff received another disheartening directive they were instructed to clear out their offices. These once-vibrant spaces were now filled with echoes of camaraderie and shared experiences, as employees faced the inevitable task of saying their goodbyes.
