If you’re searching for your soulmate you may want to book a flight thanks to a new study suggesting 1 in 50 people have found love while traveling via plane.
The study, carried out by British bank HSBC, carried out interviews with 2,150 people from 141 countries and asked them about finding love thousands of feet in the air. HSBC asked an additional 6,000 people about their general flying habits and the results revealed that over half of those asked have struck up a conversation with a stranger on a plane. Better still, one in fifty found the love of their lives thousands of feet in the air.
But the results weren’t just focused on finding a soulmate. The study also found around 14 percent of those interviewed made a long-lasting friendship with someone they struck up a conversation with while onboard and 16 percent forged a business connection with a fellow passenger.
