Footage taken on-board a flight to Krakow shows Captain Hanc coming out of the cockpit to introduce himself to passengers on the PA system.

He could then be seen tearing up as he speaks of his love, before going down on one knee and popping the question.

“On today’s flight there is a very special person and I hope that she doesn’t expect anything,” he said.

“Ladies and gentlemen, about one and a half years ago in this job I met the most wonderful person that completely changed my life.

“You are most precious to me. You are my greatest dream come true. This is why I have to ask you a favour, honey.”

“Will you marry me?” he asked while getting down on one knee.

His eyes swelled with tears as he waited patiently for his girlfriend’s answer, holding a bunch of flowers handed to him by a flight attendant.

Paula could be seen running down the aisle of the plane before leaping into the arms of her future husband.

Caught up in the shock of it all, she asks which hand the ring goes on.

“I don’t know if this is the right hand for this,” she laughed.

Passengers watched on in anticipation for her answer with one yelling, “Did she say yes?” to which the beaming captain responded: “She said yes!”

Hanc said the pair met on a flight to Krakow, a city in southern Poland near the border of the Czech Republic
