She said she heard both the unnamed man and woman say \"they're both personal trainers,\" and later added that the man used to play professional soccer.

Both of them appeared to be single according to Blair, who wrote that there were \"no wedding rings in sight,\" giving her and her own husband hope for a potential match.

The series of Tweets has garnered nearly 240,000 retweets and over 590,000 likes as of the time of this story's publication.

Holden, the man who sat next to the mystery woman and then got in touch with Blair and her boyfriend via Instagram direct message after the incident, said he heard about Blair’s viral play-by-play from a friend.

\"One of my close friends’ wife actually texted me a link to the Twitter feed and said, ‘Oh, my gosh, Euan. I recognize you. This has to be you,’” he said.

Holden, a retired professional soccer player and model, told \"GMA\" there may still be hope for him and the unnamed woman who sat beside him.

\"I walked on a plane just ready to get home and ended up sitting next to a lovely girl and had such a great time with on the flight,\" he said. “If there's a message going out, it's that there's still hope.\"

He said their time together \"made the flight go by very fast.\"

\"She's very attractive, fun, bubbly, natural,\" Holden added. \"I think it was pretty easy for me to want to exchange numbers with her and get to know her a little bit better.\"

Since the rise in social media notoriety, Holden updated his Twitter bio with the following: \"Newly nicknamed 'Plane Bae.'\"

There is no update on whether Holden and the unidentified woman are still talking or have plans to see one another again.
