China Eastern Airlines has reportedly dismissed a flight attendant of her duties, months after accepting the marriage proposal of her boyfriend during the middle of a flight.

In May, the video of an unnamed man proposing to his stewardess girlfriend mid-flight had gone viral and created quite a buzz on social media.

However, the proposal cost the flight attendant her job – according to an Asia One report, the company fired the employee on the grounds of neglecting the passengers.

Flight attendant sacked

The company felt that the mid-flight proposal was an ‘irresponsible act’ that had not only caused a disturbance but also jeopardised the security of the travellers.

According to Channel 8 on September 10, the female flight attendant received a letter informing her about her dismissal over the proposal incident that occurred in May.

Back in May, roughly 30-minutes after the flight took off, the flight attendant’s boyfriend went down on one knee and popped the question.
