A pilot took romance to new heights, quite literally, by proposing to his stewardess girlfriend—Paula—during a flight, leaving her completely surprised. Captain Konrad Hanc, flying with Polish Airlines’ Embraer 195, orchestrated a beautiful mid-air proposal, the video of which quickly went viral.

The footage, taken on a flight bound for Krakow, shows Captain Hanc stepping out of the cockpit to address the passengers over the PA system. “Today, we have a very special person on board, and I hope she isn’t expecting anything,” he announced to the passengers.

With tears welling up in his eyes, he poured out his feelings, expressing how meeting his girlfriend on the job transformed his life. Then, in a classic romantic gesture, he dropped to one knee and popped the big question. “About a year and a half ago, I met the most wonderful person in this job, and she completely changed my life. You are my greatest dream come true, and that’s why I have to ask you something, honey. Will you marry me?”
