American Airlines Gate C2 was the second happiest place on Earth on Wednesday.

Airport flight check-ins are not usually the 'fun' part of a vacation, but on Wednesday morning, getting there was half the fun.

"Disney World," Forever Thomas from Forney said smiling, wearing Minnie Mouse ears."I can experience things that other people do.""I'm just happy for her she gets to experience this," Thomas' mom Tricia Wilson said."Even if it's not for a long time, at least she gets to experience it in the moment.""I wish every time we had a flight, we had a party like this," the DJ said.

27 Make-A-Wish children and their families boarded the American Airlines flight Wednesday for a 6-day trip to Disney World. They will stay at Give Kids the World Village, a nonprofit resort.
