A new website helps passengers reconnect with those they met on planes, yet forgot to exchange contact information.
Here’s the press release:
WASHINGTON, Jan. 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — Have you ever met that special someone on a plane but for whatever reason you didn’t end up exchanging your contact details with each other and later regretted it? Without their name, how are you going to find them on Facebook?
So if you’re looking for them, and they’re looking for you www.WeMetOnAPlane.com is your opportunity to search, find and connect with that special someone!
How it works: Go to www.WeMetOnAPlane.com and search for them using your flight number, year, month, date, origin or destination. Our advanced search algorithm will display search results of all stories from that specific flight that have been shared by other passengers. Recognise a story? Simply post a reply to their story and they will be emailed immediately.
Don’t recognise any of the stories? Simply click “Share Your Story” and tell us your story about how you met that special someone. Was it love at first sight? Then share your story via social media including Facebook & Twitter and help us help you find them! The more people who know, the more chance you have of finding and connecting with that special someone.
31 year-old Australian Internet Entrepreneur Will Scully-Power is the brainchild behind www.WeMetOnAPlane.com. He launched the site after meeting his girlfriend on a plane in 2011. You can read her full story here: http://wemetonaplane.com/2011-7-11-from-kuala-lumpur-kul-to-sydney-syd/
“4,400 people search for ‘met on a plane’ in Google globally every month. This was enough data to for me to realise that I am not alone and there was no way until now for anyone to connect with someone they met on a plane without knowing their name,” said Will Scully-Power, founder of www.WeMetOnAPlane.com.
So… have you ever met anyone on a plane with whom you’d like to reconnect? Please share your story in the Comments section.
