At the same time, the Starbucks Changi baristas found his phone and rushed all the way to the boarding gate to meet the man.

 

The man said he was in a hurry to board his flight and couldn’t thank them properly at the time. Hence, his Reddit post.

They also managed to sneak a selfie into his phone album before returning the phone, much to his surprise.

A little kindness goes a long way

We are glad that the man had his lost phone returned to him, with a pleasant surprise at the end. It may be cliché, but acts of kindness do go a long way, as you can see.
