Delta employee delights passengers with 5AM airport dance moves: ‘The type of morning person I aspire to be’

They were flying out of Texas — and ended up in Funkytown.

Passengers at a Houston airport were left delighted by a gate agent who danced to disco tracks while they waited to board their plane.

The Delta employee — who hasn’t been identified — was recorded by a traveler named Eddie, who posted the footage of the airport antics to TikTok on Aug 18.

“POV: you have a 6 a.m. flight and this is your entertainment,” Eddie captioned the clip, which clocked up 4.8 million views.

The grooving gate attendant didn’t let the early hour dampen his spirits, seen smiling as he shimmied to “Funkytown” by Lipps, Inc.

Several other videos also posted to TikTok on Aug. 18 appear to show the man busting out moves at 5 a.m.

The footage shows one passenger even joining in on the fun, flatunting their early-morning moves.

Viewers of the viral video were delighted by the Delta employee’s infectious energy, with one writing: “This is the type of morning person I aspire to be.”

“Aww man,” a second wrote. “I wish I had this much energy at 6 a.m.”

However, it appeared that the dancing Delta worker may have started shimmying at an even earlier hour.

Several other videos also posted to TikTok on Aug. 18 appear to show the man busting out moves at 5 a.m.

“Delta better give a big fat Xmas bonus to this guy for entertaining passengers at 5 a.m.,” one commenter wrote beneath a separate video.

“We need this type of energy everywhere,” a second person enthused.
