Record Numbers of Sleigh Sightings
North Pole Flight Command is reporting that sleigh sighting reports have spiked from tracker elves in nearly every sector over the past month.
“We’ve never seen anything like it,” said Elf Wilbur Boeing, a flight analyst at Flight Command. “Freelance elf reports seem to be dominating this trend and they appear to be coming from a lot of coastal areas, such as the Pacific Coast of Canada, the USA and Mexico. That makes sense because that’s the flight corridor to the North Pole for inbound traffic.”
Elf Pinky of Sector 5 says the reports coming in from trackers are “off the charts” for October. She says the sleigh sighting reports are plentiful but she also reports robust activity with weather, roof and local Christmas reports.
Likewise in Sector 1, which largely has seen reporting increase from the South China Sea to the North Pacific – another popular flight corridor, Elf Randi says that because of so many sleigh sightings they are also seeing a corresponding increase in tracker elf sign-ups in Sector 1. “What’s happening is that word of these sleighs in the skies is spreading, mostly I think on social media, and as people ask ‘what is that?’ and they learn they are flying sleighs, they naturally get curious about Santa and the work the North Pole does, so they sign up.” Elf Randi said.
The same thing is happening in the Atlantic, according to Elf Rolf, Elf Supervisor for Sector 3 in Europe and Africa. “All this traffic to and from the North Pole in September and October has led to a lot more new elf sign-ups. People are interested. They want to help.”
Elf Flip has promised an update on the total count of tracker elves world wide in the coming days. We will see what impact this has had on all the recruiting numbers for new elves.
