Flying Business to R' Shayele | Rabbi Shlomo Landau

There was a yungerman who decided last minute to travel to Kerestir. He wanted to go to the Kever of R’ Shaya, with all its incredible Segulos and its Yeshuos. He needed help in a particular area of his life, and he booked a ticket the very last day that you could book a ticket. And he comes onto the plane and he's running late as it is. He's the last person that comes on the plane and he sees that his seat is between two women. It's an aisle of three, one on this side, one on that side, and everyone's waiting for him. The flight needs to take off, he just made it by the skin of his teeth. And he goes over, in the most respectful and gentle way, and he says to the stewardess, Please, is there any way we can rearrange something? I don't sit next to women. It’s my way of life. It's our culture. It's the community that I'm from. Please, can you do something? And the stewardess says to him: You have two choices. One choice is you sit in the seat that you're supposed to sit in, and this plane is able to leave, or you upgrade. There are seats in business class and first class. If you want to go to business class, we can get you a seat where nobody will sit next to you. He goes: What's it going to cost? Almost $400. Ribono shel Olam, he's not a wealthy guy. As a matter of fact, he's going there because he needs a Yeshuah financially. He thinks to himself: What am I supposed to do? He says: You know what? It's worth it. Here's my credit card. Do what you got to do. Move me to business class. There are a bunch of Yidden on the flight, actually, and as he's walking up to business class, a few guys, actually, one guy handed him a $100 bill, another guy handed him a $50, and by the time he got to the front, a good percentage was covered and he sat down in his business seat. He had a wonderful flight, and he gets to Kerestir very refreshed. And he comes to Kerestir and he davens by R’ Shaya, and it’s לעילא מכל ברכתא ושירתא. It's amazing and it's wonderful. He's about to leave and he says: Ribono shel Olam, in the zchus of the heilige Tzaddik, please help me that when I go back, I should somehow not have the Nisayon that I had on the way here, and that I also shouldn't have to pay another ticket for business, because I don't think I could do that. I don't have money for another business class ticket. And he comes back to the airport. He has a seat all the way in the back of the plane, because he reserved, again, the day that he went back. And as he's about to board the flight, all of a sudden, the flight attendant looks at him and says, Ah, the guy who paid for business last time, because he didn't want to s... You’re not going to believe it. Your seat is between two women. But you know something? I respect you. I'm going to take care of you this time. Come, there's a bunch of open seats in business class. It's on the house. And he gets the business class flight. He comes back home and he realizes that while maybe he didn't see yet the Yeshuah that R’ Shaya, hopefully, was able to be פועל for him in the area that he needed a Yeshuah, but he certainly had a Yeshuah that day, when it came to the issue of Shmiras Einayim. The Ribono shel Olam made it His business to help this fellow fly business.
