Birthday at 25,000 Feet

Circumstances being what they were, the Boy was traveling on his birthday. He and Mamma were off to spend a few days with Nanny M. They flew over and back using Mamma's Provincial Airline tickets that she'd won in a silent auction some months ago. How the word got to the cockpit, I'm not really sure but as they were cruising along, the pilot came on to say what the weather forecast was, thanks for flying with him and:

Pilot: We'd also like to send along birthday greetings to Mr. (The Boy's name) in seat 7F who's six years old today. Happy birthday!

Boy (eager for more presents): What is he sending me?
