We’ve seen it happen in rom-coms, but is it really possible to find love while waiting for a flight? With millions of people traveling through airports across the country every day, one of them could be a potential partner. But some airports are more likely to help spark a new romance than others, and a new survey reveals which ones offer the best chance of making a love connection.
- DatingAdvice.com talked to 3-thousand single travelers about their own personal experiences and had them vote for their favorite loved-up airport.
- According to the poll, flying toward fun in the sun can help boost your luck as airports in warm, beach-adjacent cities are the best for romance.
- That puts Florida at an advantage and the Sunshine State dominates the list with five of the top 10 most romantic airports.
- Palm Beach International Airport claims the top spot, with Orlando International coming in second, followed by Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.
- So, how do you actually meet someone special at the airport? The survey finds the best chance is by getting seated next to them on the plane.
- But if you’re not that lucky, having your flight delayed and bonding over shared frustration is the second-best way to meet.
- For the ultimate airport icebreaker, travelers suggest asking to borrow a phone charger.
