Hey all

Does anybody know anybody within VS that could pass on a message to a fellow passenger who I met the other day on a VS flight?

Yes I did wimp out on the day

This has real-time-social-media-rom-com written ALL over it!

Good luck

Welcommen bienvenue welcome ... is there a Craigslist for VS?

Sadly for the OP, this is not a VS service, it's independent, so probably no can do and in any case, wouldn't there be a privacy implication!

Not a bad first post though .

While VS can't contact a passenger without their permission for something unconnected with the actual services for which they paid, I wonder...

...maybe post your flight number/date here, and on FlyerTalk, and see if anyone can help?

A bit embarassing as after all this she probably doesn't even fancy me. However I must have thought I had a chance otherwise I wouldn't be kicking myself.

If she read this she would think I was a real creep, however it's just that we were having a great chat and I have been kicking myself ever since.

Cheers for your replies

You may have more luck posting over on the DIBB .
Good luck .

VFliers may get discount on buying in bulk, if we need to buy hats !

Fantastic spirit I must say. Good luck I'd also agree The Dibb might be a better bet. Can't wait to the film on which this is based

Does anybody think if she read this it would freak her out?

If so should I delete the post?

It's a shame the world is such a big place, isnt it. any help would be appreciated.

I think it's very sweet. Any idea which town she lives in? You could put an ad in the local paper, I've seen ads in our local paper like that.

It wouldn't freak me out if I was young free and single (I'm assuming she was??) . The world isn't a big place anymore . Like I said why not try over on the DIBB?

I don't think that what you've written would freak any reasonable person out -- but perhaps it would strengthen your case if you also posted some nice comments about her (keep it clean).

That's the annoying part. We were talking about each others work and what it involves etc, then about the In flight entertainment etc. Just general chat really. I didn't ask the important question of, what's your number. She asked where I lived but I'm such a shy, brain blank person (In this situation) I didn't even find out where she lived. Although I do know it's down south. I know what you're thinking South England is a big place. (your telling me).

She was a great person, interested in what I was telling her (I hope) and I really enjoyed meeting her.

I certainly got the impression that she was single. That really would be a nightmare if she did have a boyfreind and he posted on here wouldn't it. Lol

Thanks for making me feel not so weird.

How about a discrete post on the VS FB page?

Might be worth it and will be far more entertaining than most of the posts !

tontybear, Thanks for that, it might be a good idea. I will look into it.

Is there not just a simple way of telling VS or someone else what seat number I and she was in and ask VS to pass it on. I could see why they wouldn't give me her details etc but I would just ask them to forward it on.

It's like 'Love Actually' and we should all pull behind 747 dude to ensure he gets his girl!

I met a girl on a flight once, put an ad on craigslist and bingo, we dated for a few months. Turns out she was insufferably annoying, but hey ho.

slinky09 thanks alot. You all seem like great people on here. Thanks

Some more great ideas, thanks simonallardice.

Afraid not. there are all sorts of data protection rules and whilst your intentions may be entirely honest how do VS know that?

And Virgin don't know how she'll take it. She may end up filing a complaint that they contacted her about something not relevant to her flight/transaction with them.

Sadly, that's the world we now live in

I hope you don't mind me asking but what makes you think DIBB will be better?

I can't believe what I've gotton myself into here. I am just sad to think it's not going to work out, as what are the chances of her reading any of this on whichever website I go onto. I felt that my only chance was to get someone to forward the message for me. Thanks anyway and please do keep all your excellent suggestions coming.

Cheers

For one the membership is much bigger and tends to be more Disney/ Orlando specific. Given your flight was back from MCO there's more liklihood (IMHO) that someone might recognise the lady you'd like to contact. I don't know if she was travelling on her own or as a member of a family group/ party. Why not sign up over there and post a question ( you can obviously put in as much or as little information as you like). What do you have to lose ?

PS I so want this to have a happy ending .

Hey DragonLady

I have signed up and put a thread on there. Take a look if you like

Like you say what's there to lose?

Good luck!

A true new age rom com. I can see Hugh Grant all over this. I am a great believer in fate, so you never know... If it's meant to be... It's meant to be. I have just returned from the us and watched the adjustment burreau. Written in the stars maybe. I also think an emotive love song should accompany this thread! Good luck 747 dude!!
