I met a sexy pilot at the airport – thanks to a viral video we're now together

First it was love Flight.

A woman discovers love is in the air after a chance encounter with a pilot in Mexico leads to a romance for the ages. A video of the couple's accidental first meeting is currently going viral on TikTok with over 80 million views.

“They say what’s for you always comes back,” said Fernanda Ramirez, who has over 480,000 TikTok followers, according to Jam Press.

“It's unbelievable how well we fit together,” enthused Fernanda Ramirez, pictured here immediately after meeting pilot Carlos. Press jam

The passenger had filmed a video for her social media channels while waiting for her flight to Cancun.

There she met the pilot Carlos.

In the August video, the content creator can be seen posing for the camera when suddenly the Flyboy runs right into them, seemingly distracted by his own device.

The two look into each other's eyes for a second before going their separate ways and giving each other one last look.

It seemed that there was no hope of a relationshipShip had sailed.

Then, while the influencer was on her flight, the footage exploded on TikTok as internet matchmakers urged Ramirez to track down the captain.

“This can't end with just one look,” fumed one fan on Instagram, while another begged: “If he's single, I'll send you all.”

That seemed to do the trick. In a twist straight out of a romantic comedy, Carlos saw the clip, contacted the traveler and revealed that he was the pilot in their video clip.

As if that wasn't coincidence enough, Ramirez happened to be traveling to Mexico City – the same place where her future boyfriend had just landed.

After corresponding online, the pair agreed to meet there in person, seemingly marking the start of an Officer And A Gentleman-style love saga.

This was more than a fleeting romance. The social media star revealed the couple had an item in an October TikTok video that juxtaposed footage of their first encounter with a recent clip of them in an embrace.

“It’s unbelievable how well we fit together,” Ramirez enthused.

Viewers were overjoyed that their relationship was going so well.

“She caught feelings, then she caught a flight,” flattered one excited fan.

Another wrote: “I'm so glad the algorithm brought me back to this love of her story.”
