Big-hearted passengers aboard the final Thomas Cook flight reportedly raised more than $6,000 for plane staffers after news broke Monday that the British tour company and airline had financially collapsed.

Stephanie Kaye, 25, of the English city of Leeds was among the 326 passengers aboard the flight from Las Vegas to Manchester, England, when news of the company’s demise surfaced — along with the fact that the flight’s staffers would not be getting paid for the voyage, the UK’s Mirror reported.

“When we got on the plane, the staff were really friendly and professional,” Kaye told the news outlet.

“One of the staff members made an announcement at the beginning of the journey to say they knew as much as we did, so please bear that in mind if you hear anything. And she said, ‘If you’re that way inclined, please say a little prayer for us,’ and it got a bit emotional as everyone started clapping.”

Kaye recalled that the pilot then made an announcement as soon as the plane landed, saying, “That’s the end of our dream.”

“And he mentioned how staff wouldn’t be getting paid, so he asked us to thank the rest of the crew,” Kaye said.

“Then, everyone clapped again, and staff were in tears and thanking the passengers for making it a nice flight,” she said. “But towards the end of the journey, passengers had started a little collection, but it ended being quite a big collection.”

Kaye noted that “everyone was putting in their remaining dollars, and I think there was two bags going around, so it turned out to be a lot of the money.”

The flight crew thanked the passengers over the plane’s intercom.

“It was really emotional, passengers were crying. It’s crazy that staff didn’t know about it,” she said.

Another passenger, Tommy Laing, posted on Facebook that staffers told fliers mid-flight “that we were on the last Thomas [C]ook flight anywhere, they had just lost their jobs and would not be getting paid this month- they were all in tears!”

Laing said passengers raised apparently more than $6,000.

Passengers aboard another Thomas Cook flight from Orlando, Fla., also reportedly donated money to staffers at the end of the flight.

Britain’s Civil Aviation Authority announced early Monday that the 178-year-old company had ceased trading.

It said the firm’s four airplanes will be grounded and its 21,000 employees will lose their jobs.
