What did you do the last time you took a plane flight? I'll bet you buried your head in the airline magazine or popped in the headphones for the movie.

Have you ever thought of striking up a conversation with the person next to you? I know it can be uncomfortable and you really don't want to do it if they're not cute to you.

But have you ever considered that they may have a single friend to set you up. This is what relationship networking is all about. So strike up a conversation and see what happens. You can always rent that movie you missed when you get home.
