Plane passenger goes viral after revealing unexpected note she received from pilot on back of a napkin

A plane passenger's heart was on the verge of taking off after she received a cheeky note from a pilot on the back of a dinner napkin.

Influencer Steph Bohrer, known for posting lifestyle and travel videos, shared the contents of the love letter over on TikTok (@stephbohrer) on Wednesday (5 March).

"I'm sitting at the airport and a pilot just placed this on my table and walked away," the text overlay in the 11-second video read.

Written on a brown napkin, the note itself read: "I have seen the whole world and you are the most beautiful woman in it."

"I didn’t even see his face," the 23-year-old who studied at Arizona State University admitted in the caption.

At the time of writing, the video has already received 11.3 million views, but viewers seem to be pretty divided over in the comments.

One of her fans penned: "I was like who could be this beautiful to warrant such a beautiful compliment but then I checked and it’s Steph Bohrer like yeah duh."

Others, however, were more sceptical, as a second user wrote: "As a former F/A, you're probably not the first to receive the same napkin that week."

"I just know this guy does this all the time," a third agreed.

While a fourth said: "I feel like he just carries a STACK of these in his pocket."

Some thought the haters were reading a little too much into it, as another commented: "Damn the comments lol. Let a girl receive a no strings attached compliment in peace."

"These comments are so interesting cause I compliment people all the time without being interested in them, but then again, I’m a woman," someone else said.

The Tinder TikTok admin also couldn't help themselves, writing: "And what happened next???"

Pinterest also wrote: "Think this is your sign to make a wedding board babe."

As Booking.com added: "Free flights for life sounds good to me."

Bohrer previously opened up about the criticism she sometimes receives on social media, telling Her Campus in 2021: "I’m pretty sensitive. The biggest challenge is accepting the fact that not everyone is going to like you… I want everyone to like me and I’m such a people pleaser… I don’t want to offend anyone."

On what motivated her to start a TikTok channel, she added: "It actually started in quarantine. I was super bored, not really talking to anyone. I was reading a lot because I had nothing better to do. And I was just like, I need to talk about the books I’m reading with people…

"I saw like two TikToks about books and was like, I could totally do that from my room."
