Jason Momoa rose to fame playing the handsome Khal Drogo in the first season of Game of Thrones. His chiseled physique, long hair, and rugged beard appealed to viewers everywhere and catapulted the star to fame.
In recent years, he has been playing Aquaman in the DC Universe — a role that inspired his new business endeavor, Mananalu canned water. He decided to promote his new company, and surprise fans, during a recent flight to Hawaii.
Why Jason Momoa Surprised Passengers on a Flight
TikTok user Kylee was flying to Hawaii when she realized that she recognized the flight attendant. To her shock and delight, the man pushing a drinks cart down the airplane aisle was none other than heartthrob Jason Momoa!
The 43-year-old superstar was promoting his new sustainable canned water company, Mananalu, by passing out water to his fellow passengers. Kylee captured the amazing moment on her TikTok, creating an 11-second video set to a remix of Under the Sea. Commenters went crazy, dubbing Momoa “Aguaman” — a clever twist on his Aquaman character. Momoa shared a video on his own channels, writing, “Mahalo @hawaiianairlines for allowing me and my team to capture this special moment.”
It’s a dream come true. My idea to create @Mananalu.water came to me while on a flight. I’m grateful for your support and it’s an honor to have Hawaiian Airlines be the first airline to partner with Mananalu.

The Inspiration Behind Jason Momoa’s New Venture ‘Mananal
Momoa’s appearance on board the flight to Hawaii was more than just a promotional activity. His goal is to create a sustainable brand and do away with bottled water forever, preserving the earth and its riches — which are on display beautifully in his hometown of Hawaii. Momoa decided that not only would he delight the passengers with his surprise appearance, he gifted them all with 10,000 airline points!
Jason Momoa is an excellent example of a celebrity who uses his fame and fortune for good. Not only does he go out of his way to create a company whose goal is to save the environment, he interacts with his fans and people from his hometown regularly. He is the type of person who lives every moment with gratitude and generosity in his heart — someone we should all look up to.
