"This man left the company he's been with for 40 years, started fresh as a junior, got a new rating at the age of 58, just so he could fly with two of his annoying daughters," she tweeted.
"I cannot tell you how grateful I am for this. Alhamdulillah, I finally got to fly with my Abah!" she added.
Anisa explained in another tweet that her father decided to make the jump from one airline to another so that he could fly with his girls before he retires in 5 years
