After the usual I'm-your-pilot spiel, Qantas Captain Ellis addressed one passenger in particular, his girlfriend Ana, who was flying to visit her family in South America.

And to his relief - and the rest of the plane's, I'm sure - she said yes. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
