closing. Both doors remained opened about half way and the train was stuck. David Martin showed and

Please pass on my thanks to Academy bus driver Christopher Wright. This morning about 05:48AM, I was
on personal business at Terminal A level 3 check-in roadway near door #2 and I noticed two elderly
passengers (male with a walker) and female with a smarte carte loaded with bags were trying to board bus
#4952. The bus pulled up as best it could due to the traffic congestion issues. The driver was very patient and
polite in welcoming the passengers onboard and also inquiring where (airlines/terminals) they were going.
Both passengers took a while to get on the bus with their bags safely. The bus was already knelt which makes
it easier in accommodating the male passenger who was using a walker. Thank you driver Wright for being
polite and professional in discharging your duties - by you greeted both passengers with a good morning and
a smile goes a long way.

Airport: Newark Liberty International Airport |
Experience: I would recommend Senbongile Ziyambi for a WeSoar Award because she went above and beyond the call
of duty. On March 14, 2022. I was working at terminal B. When Senbongile stopped on Bravo platform it
was crowded to the max with passengers, and we had a unattended bag on the platform. She took the
initiative to ask me did I need any assistance while I was on the platform. She roped off the unattended
backpack until the passenger came back to retrieve it after the general announcement was made. She used the
speaker on the platform to inform the passengers of the train that was arriving, and she explained to them that
if they were not able to make the current train ; they will have to get on the next train. Sebongile presence
helped me out a lot because it helped maintained the crowd management and facilitated the passengers
process to get to their destination. I will always appreciate any supervisor who will step in a provide
assistance when it’s needed. Thank You |

belong to Spirit airlines but it had been there for days. While I went back to check which airline it belonged to,
he assisted me at all times. Aaron was proactive, kept a clean work area and was alert plus prepare to assist a
Spirit airline passenger who would be in need of assistance. It was a pleasure interacting with Aaron. |

PAPD assuming that the individual was a homeless person. By the time PAPD arrived, Alicia had already

Employee: Karchung Gurung |
Airport: LaGuardia Airport |
Experience: Ms. Gurung is a server at a dining location found in Terminal D. What I witnessed was an airport employee
who went above and beyond, multitasking and at all times with a smile. Ms. Gurung had 16 different plates
which came out of the kitchen for her to serve and make sure the entrees went to the correct party or person. A
customer came up to Ms. Gurung a bit frantic inquiring where her food was. Even though, Ms. Gurung had a
system going, she stood calm and served the customer inquiring about her food first. Then she went out to
delivery the rest of the plates. As Ms. Gurung finished, customers were coming up to the dining area asking if
they can be seated. With all smiles, energy and a warm greeting, Ms. Gurung went ahead and sat everyone
accordingly, took their order and proceeded to seek if anyone needed anything. When I approached Ms.
Gurung to nominate her she was very grateful and appreciated someone saw her in action, working hard. |

And at all times, focused on her main goal, a clean restroom for our airport passengers, employees and
customers. Cristiana's hard work can be seen in action and the results she places in keeping her assigned

Experience: I would like to pass on my thanks and recognition to ACES Kallipone who was working at EWR Terminal B
FIS/Immigration Hall on 2/25/2022 about 10:00L. A CBP officer was inquiring from all the ACES present at
Terminal B Immigration Hall for a women's make up pouch/kit. ACES Kallipone immediately informed the
Customs officer that she remembered assisting a female customer earlier in the day and the customer sat
aside her make-up pouch and forgot it in the immigration hall and she took possession of it and kept it safely
at the ACES booth. She immediately handed it over to the officer and the officer was very thankful to her for
keeping the pouch safe and not threw it in the garbage. The officer pointed to a finger ring as one of the main
important item in the pouch. Also, the officer praised her for the way she took ownership in managing the
passenger queuing lanes on a daily basis at the FIS location.
Thank You.

Employee: Daniel Baker |
Airport: JFK International Airport |
Experience: Today I visited building 14 to get my fingerprinting done at the JFK badging office. The
moment I entered the office, a front line team member, "Dan", kindly approached me in a very friendly fashion,
asked me questions and guided me in the right direction. Besides helping me, he was also very engaging with
other internal guests (airport employees) that were arriving to the office. Something unique I noticed about Dan
is that transmit his passion for service excellence to others - you could see his smile through this mask and he
definitely made our internal guests feel guided during their journey at the badging office. |

Employee: Margie Floyd |
Airport: Newark Liberty International Airport |
Experience: This is in recognition of Ms. Margie Floyd who extended outstanding customer service to a passenger who
had arrived in EWR for a funeral, was unfamiliar with the area, and did not know how to get to where she
needed to be. Margie had obviously left such a memorable impression on the passenger that she requested to
speak to her manager. My fellow Terminal Duty manager, Will, and myself spoke with this passenger who
conveyed her sincere gratitude for Margie’s help, and also stated that it was the first time she was treated with
such wonderful and amazing customer service. Margie, as the passenger described, approached her with a
warm smile and a pleasant attitude asking how she could be of help. After providing the passenger with
directions to the train, Margie also gave her information regarding how to get to her destination. The
passenger thanked Margie for making what was a sad and stressful trip, one that was filled with genuine
kindness and care. |

Employee: Jonathan Miranda |
Airport: Newark Liberty International Airport |
Experience: Jonathan assisted the Port Authority during the recent snowstorm with the movement of equipment off the ramp
to ensure that the Port Authority could handle the operations of flight and the clearing of snow. Jonathan, as a
mechanic, worked to get equipment running to be moved out of the right of way of snow removal equipment.
Some of the equipment was not even the company's, however in the emergency situation assisted the Port
Authority, showing the sacrifice made with needing to complete their own work and providing for the benefit of
the overall operation. I appreciate Jonathans efforts and want to provide this acknowledgement. |
