Juan Karlos Labajo, also known as JK Labajo, just received a sweet surprise during one of his flights.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, on January 29, 2024, the 22-year-old singer uploaded a photo of a piece of tissue paper with a stamp identifying it to be from the Philippine Airlines carrier.
JK has been busy traveling from one city to the next for his concerts.

Although it falls as standard protocol to distribute tissue to patrons taking their meal, the small parchment actually conveys a heartwarming message for JK from a member of the flight cabin crew.
The letter started with a line from JK's song "Shot Puno," which read: "‘Minahal kita nang hindi mo kailangan.’ One of the many lines na tumatak sa'kin."
It went on to acknowledge the OPM star as more than just a public personality, but a true dedicated artist in the music and arts scene.
"Napaka-solid mo, JK! Isa kang malupit na artist... hindi lang basta celebrity, pero tunay na alagad ng sining.
"Kaya sana, 'wag kang mapagod sa paglikha! Para sa bayan, sining at pag-ibig!"
It was signed off with "cabin crew Ice."
Without saying anything, JK simply captioned his post with a tearing up face emoji and a heart emoji, expressing how he was moved by the note.
His fans were also beaming with pride for the young artist, with one encouraging him to keep the letter as "a testament to your art and who you are in our hearts."
Another commented, "JK, reading this makes me so happy. I'm so happy you stood your ground to be the artist that you are. Took no shortcuts and slowly but surely got there. All organic, pure talent."
