A United Airlines pilot made the most important flight of life a couple of days back when he surprised his army son who was returning from his deployment.

When Captain Mario Lopes learnt UA was chartered to do a military charter, he picked it up and discussed it with his wife to keep it a surprise.

“We wanted to surprise him on his return home,” he was quoted as saying by a website.

The emotional reunion between dad and son was captured by others onboard.

The two just couldn’t stop hugging.
