Qantas CEO responds to 10-year old boy's letter seeking his advice, wins hearts on internet

New Delhi: The Internet is going ga-ga over the response of Qantas Airlines CEO to a 10-year-old boy who wrote a letter seeking his advice.

I’m Alex Jacquot, a 10-year-old boy (please take me seriously) and I want to start an airline,” wrote the boy.

He then wrote that he is the CEO of the airline which is called Oceana Express. “I have also hired a CFO, a head of IT, a head of maintenance, a head of board services, and a head of legal as well, along with my friend Wolf,” the 10-year old added.

“Do you have any idea of what I can do? Seeing as you are the CEO Qantas, I thought I'd ask you,” the boy wrote.

The letter and the response was shared by Qantas on twitter and has won many hearts on the internet:

Our competitors don't normally ask us for advice, but when an airline leader reached out, we couldn't ignore it.
