why am i crying so much watching this ad

How wonder that Petula Clark who is sing the song is in the plane with him. Lovely little touch

Since I moved to the U.S. over ten years ago, Heathrow has become a bitter sweet place for me. It's the place of joyful reunions and tearful goodbyes and so they've done a great job capturing the essence of meeting up with family again in these commercials. Well done!

“Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport.” ❤️

I'm rewatching this every year. It doesn't go old in the slightest. Absolutely adorable advert😍

I enjoy watching this advert, I think about this Teddy Bear advert when I'm travelling by Heathrow Express in between London Paddington and Heathrow Airport.

This is absolutely still the best Christmas advert ever makes me cry every time I watch it

Absolutely excellent advert, and so well made. That really was Heathrow in 1967, or how it looked. BOAC (RIP) was called BOAC Cunard at the time. The aircraft is correct (VC10), the vehicles on the tarmac are correct, and the arrivals hall really did look like that. The travel bags, the bus, the uniforms. All perfect. WELL DONE!

I think this rates as my favorite holiday ad of all time. Charming story and animation, one of my favorite Petula Clark songs, and a cameo by Petula herself! Well done, Heathrow!

The first time I saw this was on our local T.V. station in Hamilton Ontario Canada. It brought tears to my eyes.

Heathrow, I luurve you so much and miss you so much x your "Bears" are beautifully humanised, just so adorable x

How wonderful to have used Petula Clark's song, but did you also notice her sitting as a passenger at the 40 sec mark? 😊

Great Ad. Beats any of the retail adverts this year by far!

Pure Genius. Lovely concept and attention to detail. I think London Heathrow have outdone everyone for a Christmas short here with It's a Wonderful Flight. Reminds me of what used to be enjoyable about flying.

holy shit, this was legitimately very well made. Good stuff Heathrow Airport.

is fantastic to hear petula clark reminds me the old dayes

Finally a good Christmas advert this year

By far the best Christmas advert yet!

Well done Heathrow commissioning such a fabulous advert. The creators have done you proud.

Love this ad reminds me of driving from Bristol to London Heathrow to pick up my mum and dad from Athens, my father passed away in May after a long illness so all of Terminal 2 has been rebuilt and changed so much, if I took up my nephews they were always so happy to see them coming out will loads of bags.

My ex and I met 1997, and worked for B A. I lived in the states, and commuted back and forth Unfortunately died in 08. I saw the time change to 1997....our first Christmas together....and I although I was already tearing up...that sent me into full on waterworks. Lovely and tremendously bittersweet. Thank you Heathrow and B A. It hit my heart like nothing in a long while. Happy holidays to everyone this year!

I'm not crying, I got alien goo in my eyes...

Nov 2019 now so it's that time of year for this kind of adverts. Would be good if this is shown on TV again.

Just one word BRILLIANT.

HaHa absolutely love this with the bears. Heathrow is such an interesting place and mostly everyone has been at some point with memories of going away or picking someone up! Wonderful advert 💙 💙 💙

Wait 'till COVI is done. We'll have reunion like these bears.

This is my favorite Christmas advert. Keep up the good work, Heathrow! I hope to visit your lovely airport someday!

LOVE LIVE LOVE THIS ONE !!! I watched this on my phone in L.A. where I live !! A very well done commercial & a great concept !!! Bravo ~!!! 👏👏👏👏👍👍👍😃😍🌲💜🥁🐉🎤🎶🎁💕💞

Love this advert! Made me very emotional

Fabulous, yet again another winner! The "girl bear" on the roller skates.....lol.... Well done LHR!

For those that will say I went on a diatribe, indulge me if you take the time to read my missive.. With Christmas 23 days away, again Heathrow makes a wonderful advert... it pulls at my heartstrings. I haven't been on a trip home for a very long time. I used to go so often. I always use Heathrow, as I once used to always use BOAC, BA. This is definitely the time of year where you miss loved ones that have gone before us, yet have left new family that I remain close with. I simply must go; it's not a matter of not wanting to go, it all been down to health. I'd need a plane bed.. it puts the opportunity more out of reach. I pledge to myself... I will make it home once more before cancer takes the opportunity. I don't believe there's another nation on this earth.. no matter how long they've lived away from the UK that does not still have an endearing love of our magnificent country/ies.

How wonderful . Marvelous advert and a stunning beautiful genius vocal from the wondrous Petula

Superb,has to be the best 2017 Christmas advert,and how nice to feature Petula not only singing but also as a passenger.

I bloody love this advert!!

I can't stop watching this. it is really well done plus those bares are really cute! I can't wait for next year's

How cute! I loved last year's but I love this one even more!

Oh Heathrow, you’ve done it again. Merry Christmas and happy holidays. I love the bears.

LOVE IT!!!!! Best one this year hands down!

Love your TV Adverts, Heathrow Airport! 😊

Congratulations to the team for these advertisements! Well done!

Best ad ever!!! I love it💕🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

And 10 years from now that old couple may well be dead or in an old folks home and forgotten about. Cherish every moment folks. Time is cruel but marches on relentlessly. :-(

Just when you thought this couldnt get anymore adorable and cuddly cute, they had to bring in baby bears in at 1:11 look at that lil boy bear running towards his daddy.....awwww ^w^

I loved the one with the bears last year, so glad they're back. Sure makes me miss being in the UK

I am just now watching this commercial; This is the best holiday ad ever. I love this!!! It brought tears to my eyes first time watching. Good job!!

This video still tugs at my heart. From someone who works in commercial aviation, one of the absolute best!

The wonderful bears have done it again - the best Christmas advert of 2017 by a clear mile. Totally delightful, and the little nuances of expression (I love the way the lady bear gives a little shrug of her shoulders!!!) are fantastic. Even better than last year's - unbelievably. Move over John Lewis, the Heathrow bears RULE!!!! (And thank you to the person that spotted Petula Clark in the ad - made it even better...)

I loved this so much!!!

It suddenly got all dusty here; tears in my eyes....

it's my most favorite Christmas ad ever... so lovely

So good. Makes me cry everytime

Oh dear I’m a big softy this made me cry! Lovely advert!

That is the cutest thing ever!

So cute this reminds me of all the good times when I came to London at Christmas

This has just made my day!

My new favourite christmas advert :) just like last year!

heathrow wins christmas

Wonderful....and the song would not be there, if it weren't for dear Jackie Trent, who wrote the song. Best British voice of the 1960s..and onwards. Thanks Jackie!

Brilliant all the way through. Made me cry.

Nothing better than a VC10 and a song from Petula Clark.

loved everything about this advert it is so heartwarming. Haven't seen it on tv .😀😀😀

How dare they leave onions...HOW DARE THEY!! #crying #cutenessoverload

I met a loved one for Christmas at Heathrow two years ago, it was everybit as magical as this wonderful advert. We don't speak much now, so i'm welling up at this advert, so emotional

I cried right through this I love these ads❤

I wish we could go back to things we love ❤️ 😞

This ad is a real treasure.

The Heathrow bears are back and bring children and grandchildren. Fantastic!

Soooooo sweet!!!! I love this bears 😍😍😍 Many greetings from Teddy-King Opa I. from Baeranien 🐾

THIS IS OFFICIALLY MY FAVOURITE ADVERT EVER!!

That's so beautiful

How bloody cute is this eh! I got sad for a minute there n then had a cheesy grin on me gob🤣😊🤣.. we all loved our bears as kids ... so this is really cute!

omg, im not crying just got something in my eye is all lol i love this commercial, so much adorableness lol

Omg so lovely❤❤❤❤❤

I adore these adverts, but honestly i wish they never turned into humans at the end. It's so much cuter to pretend there is actually a family of bears running around Heathrow.

This is the cutest commercial I've ever seen!

Seen this before and love it but damn it it got me chocked up this time 😭

I hope there will be more this year!! 2022 come on Heathrow!!! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

It's unbearably cute

Wonderful advertisement,and even better featuring Petula singing and as a passenger. ,

Adorable!

This is the cutest advert I've ever seen.

This is adorable!

I met a Dutch guy in Bangkok around a decade ago. He had dated and married a KLM hostess back in the 70s. They had a ball, until she died of cancer a few years ago. Very sad.

A life well lived is a tremendous adventure!

Awesome!! A definite Xmas winner!!

Eagerly awaiting for 2019 Christmas ad.

Superbe et très émouvant mise en scène de ces personnages avec la sublime voix de PETULA CLARK :)

This is the cutest commercial ever😻

Wonderful. Best crimbo advert by far..:)

the cutest shit ive ever seen

such a great ad....tears welling up

M God I love this! and yes that's petula in to brief cameo

So lovely 😍

The one from last year is still my favourite but damn, right in the feels again this year too :D :)

This is so cute!!!

This just popped up on youtube and I love it, but wish they had remained bears -- teddy bears are always cuter than humans. And I NEVER would have noticed that Petula Clark was seated on the plane if someone hadn't pointed it out in THEIR comment (thanks and good eye! -- I love helpful, POSITIVE comments).

What a great video, across the miles. All the best AVSEC NZ.

how can I get teary eyed over a commercial?

BRILLIANT ad!!!

So sweet!
