A Delta customer service agent provided LA-bound passengers at JFK Airport with a message of hope and love shortly after the deaths of Kobe Bryant, his 13-year-old daughter and seven others aboard a chopper.

Footage tweeted by Arye Sufrin shows the employee, named in another tweet as Courtney, inspiring the travelers at the terminal to cherish their lives and their loved ones in the wake of the tragedy.

“It wasn’t an easy day, but just know that we’re here with you,” she says.

“So if there is someone you haven’t spoken to today, call them. If there is someone you haven’t reached out to in a while, call them,” she continues. “Don’t text. We’ve got to pick the phone up.”

She concludes the message by telling the passengers to “remember, you have your life.”

“Here at Delta we celebrate life and we celebrate love,” she adds.

In his tweet, Sufrin urges Delta to “please hire more people like this Delta Rep whose contagious positivity make it more enjoyable to fly.”

“We love seeing Delta people use kindness and positivity to take care of our customers in heartfelt ways,” a Delta rep told The Post.
