Anytime you go flying, there's a lot that goes into the process of getting ready for the flight. Preparing yourself for getting on the plane, making sure you get to the airport to get through security, and of course, the dreaded event known as packing.

Most of time, we make it through air travel pretty well don't we? Well there's always the chance that we could arrive the airport a little later than usual, or we aren't able to get food before we get onto the plane. But for the most part, we get to our destination with little trouble.

There's one thing some don't factor in however. What is that you ask? The journey back to wherever we live.

Forgetting something is a very scary thought, and for one family, the loss of a very important doll was almost a reality, until one individual stepped in to save the day.
