Throughout the years, people have witnessed all manner of bizarre and extraordinary marriage proposals but, when you're travelling on a plane, it's the last thing you expect to see. Recently, a man was caught on camera proposing to his other half whilst journeying to Spain aboard an easyJet aircraft, leaving onlookers absolutely flabbergasted.

Footage of the heartwarming scene was recently posted on TikTok by Nicki Gunner, and has since become a sensation, as viewers simply cannot fathom how events unfolded during the flight. Accompanying a clip of the footage, Nicki penned: "Nothing beats an easyJet proposal outside the toilets on a flight to Benidorm."

The footage has been watched more than 80,000 times since being uploaded, leaving people utterly incredulous that such events transpired. In the recording, the man can be seen grasping his beloved's hands whilst positioned outside the lavatory, before popping the all-important question - and it's certainly not the first romantic story to have developed aboard an aircraft.

Following their conversation, the man drops to one knee and retrieves a ring from his pocket before asking for her hand in marriage. The aircraft subsequently bursts into applause after his partner responds with "yes".

A cabin crew member can be heard offering congratulations to the pair following the wonderful moment. People expressed varied thoughts and queries after the footage was shared, with numerous individuals questioning his decision to choose the plane journey for such a momentous proposal.

One individual commented: "Why not propose on the holiday?" Another remarked: "This is real romance."

A third quipped: "Engaged on the plane, married at baggage claim and honeymoon in Benidorm." Meanwhile, a fourth remarked: "Imagine walking out of the loo, and everyone clapping in your direction."

Someone else also weighed in with: "Cute. They probably have been on holiday several times going on easyJet. They may have met on easyJet, It means something.

"Don't mock people for having connections. I've seen way worse - a man proposing at his kebab shop; however, it still has meaning."

Some also highlighted that you can't fly directly to Benidorm, but you can travel to Alicante-Elche Airport, as this is the nearest airport to the resort. From here, you can take a bus, taxi or shuttle transfer from Alicante Airport to Benidorm, as there is no airport directly in the town itself.

Nevertheless, many grasped what Nicki meant, and were eager to celebrate the couple's joy. Several offered warm words to the newly engaged pair.

One said: "Just let them enjoy life. We don't know the backstory. [It] could be they met on a plane, could be this is when he knew that he loved her. People are so sad to put these people down for what they are doing."

Another responded: "Maybe she works for easyJet and he surprised her by getting on the flight. Sounds like the crew knew about it. That's cute."

Someone else also contributed: "They might have met on this same route 10 years ago. This might be really sentimental. Congratulations to them."
