Man forced to propose on flight to friend's wedding as passenger lets slip plans

A routine flight turned into a heartwarming spectacle when love took centre stage aboard a Delta Airlines plane.

Minita and Darian, a couple en route from Atlanta to a friend's wedding in Cancun, had no idea that their journey would become a memorable chapter in their love story.

Darian had meticulously planned to propose to Minita during their stay at a luxurious resort in the Mexicto city.

He aimed to keep the surprise away from the prying eyes of the soon-to-be-wed couple, not anticipating that fate had something different in store for them.

As the flight took off, Darian found himself engaged in a casual conversation with a fellow passenger about their destination.

Little did he know that their exchange had captured the attention of a sharp-eared Delta flight attendant.

Intrigued by Darian's intentions, the attentive crew member saw an opportunity to create an unforgettable moment for the couple.

Seated separately on the plane, Minita and Darian had no clue about the behind-the-scenes excitement brewing around them.

The flight attendant approached Darian with a brilliant suggestion - why not propose right there, in the air, with the airline's assistance?
