Travel Tip: How to Get Married on a Plane

Are you feeling that love is in the air? Believe it or not, you can actually get married on a plane. The rules are simple. 
 
To keep things legal, have your nuptials either on a commercial airline that is flying either within one country or a flight going within one U.S. state. Let the airline know in advance. 
 
On one recent Delta flight, a happy couple from Virginia was allowed to literally walk down the aisle. On a Southwest flight, the crew serenaded the newlyweds, and the pilot married them using the PA system. He never left the cockpit.
 
By the way, there’s another reason to get married over just one state. That way, if you ever get divorced, you’ll know ahead of time what laws apply.
