One by one, the passengers exited the plane at Kansas City International Airport with a flower in hand.
They offered the flowers to the girlfriend, who was not quite sure what was going on.
But when her boyfriend finally exited he gave her a kiss and a hug, then got on one knee and proposed.
"I've been planning this since like Jan.," said George Erasmus. "So it's been a long wait. It's hard to keep secrets. So I was excited."
Ashley Kracht added, "I'm overwhelmed. I'm shaking. I did not expect this at all."
In case you're wondering, Ashley said yes.
The couple met three years ago when she was working as a missionary in South Africa.
