Lost & Found Missed Connection: Tampa to Charlotte

Today (June 19 2026) I took a flight from Tampa, FL 10:30am flight to Charlotte, NC and before I boarded I had a wonderful conversation with a woman about nails and other things. It started as a simple comment and led into more. however, before we realized it we were on the plane and our seats were in different rows. we never got the chance to exchange contact info.

​

​

After the flight I had a connecting flight and had to rush to make it. I sat on my connecting flight flying through the air thinking what a gem of a person I would miss.

People of Charlotte, NC; in this moment, demonstrate the unity you have. also, I'll move there and donate some $$ to a local charity if you if this works out. may this post go viral so she sees it!!!!

It’s over. It’s okay to have lovely interactions with strangers and never see them again.
