Don't beat about the bush - recite the following:

The only reason I propose
Is to get my hands on your Avios
If you can get me an MFU
Then my dear, forever, I love you.
And PUCCI still turned you down?

I have a new household account
In which I hope we will collect
Avios in large amount
Enough for the seats we both expect
Will you marry me?

Another option is of course a haiku:

In a Club World seat
We will go on honeymoon
Will you marry me?

Very impressed by the poets, must be somebody from the recent Nobel prize dinner
Since it is a flight to Sweden OP can include something about Abba, Ikea, Volvo

FT's favourite CSD
Has professed undying love for me
I'm often seen in Terminal Four
Walking arm-in-arm with Ms GALORE

On the ground or in the air,
Together we make such a pair,
Oh so high, I do ask thee,
Please say yes, and marry me.


Sorry, couldn't resist hopping in! Great posts! PS - how could I forget - best of luck OP, do let us know how it goes!

And when we went to Terminal One
I reached behind and pinched her [too rude]

A quick rendition of I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do might be appropriate.

Give me a second while I go down ..... on one knee
Give me your hand, take off your glove
I give you this ring forever my love

The bulge in my trousers, what can it be
Did it look like a carat
It's actually 1.3.

I wouldn't dare propose on an aircraft to anyone, as I'm already married. And all she got was a proposal as we were gazing at a shoe shop window in Malta

However ... I do suggest notes passed at bag-drop, gate and boarding will inevitably generate something. OK, so it's warm white fizzy in a small screw-top bottle, but hey, you have the rest of your lives to make up for that!!

"We're in the air, and you're so fair,
I cannot contain it no longer,
Your the one for me, oh, don't you see?
So why should we now linger.

Give me your hand, have a golden band,
Be mine forever more,
And please don't fret about admin and that,
I'll manage the HHA."
