Rosey Blaire and her boyfriend were seated apart on a recent flight so they asked a young woman if she would swap seats with them so they could sit beside each other.
The woman happily agreed and the couple joked that whoever sits next to the woman may just turn out to be the love of her life. As it turned out, a young man sat down beside the woman, and Blaire, seated a row back, decided to Instagram what happened for the remainder of the flight, and later upload the pictures as a twitter thread (@RoseyBeeme).
It turned out that the young woman and the man were both personal trainers. They were both vegetarians. Neither of them had wedding rings.
According to Blaire’s tweets, the two never stopped talking, they flirted, they touched elbows and scooted closer together, they shared family photos. They even decided to skip drinks and instead share some cheese.
After the flight Blaire took a picture of the two walking close together while heading to the baggage area. According to the BBC, she later updated her followers informing them that the two had followed each other on social media, were both single, and both from the same area.
Euan Holden, a former Stockport Country and Bury footballer, has claimed to be the man involved, now affectionately known as ‘plane bae’.
Has the romance managed to take off?
The BBC reports that when asked, Holden replied that a gentleman would never say.
