Niall Horan, 28, took to Twitter on Thursday, February 17 to praise the employees on a British Airways aircraft. He praised them for ‘taking wonderful care of him when he became ‘very unwell’ while traveling.

He wrote on Twitter, “thank you to the staff on that @British_Airways flight. I was extremely ill and they took such good care of me.” 

The official Twitter website of British Airways responded to him, saying: “Thanks for your lovely comments about the care you received from our crew on your flight, Niall. We’ll be sure to pass on your thanks to them.”

While Niall Horan has been tight-lipped about his sickness, a source who was on the same flight as him informed MailOnline: “He seemed fine when boarding and early on in the flight, but later on had wet, cold towels around his head and neck. On the final descent, he was vomiting quite violently.”

They told the news organization: “He actually very kindly signed an autograph for me to give to a friend whilst we were waiting for our bags, and could not have been more polite and welcoming. He seemed a little bit better at baggage reclaim.”
