RENEE MONTAGNE, HOST: Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne with the tale of a pilot's catchy preflight announcement.

A video on the airline's Facebook shows him asking, will you marry me? Moments later, he was in the cabin, on his knee, offering a ring. And to his relief - and the rest of the plane's, I'm sure - she said yes. It's MORNING EDITION.
