Airline's match-making flight for singles

[NM]

From news.com.au:

AIR New Zealand will offer a lonelyhearts trip for US singles to New Zealand in what it is billing as the world's matchmaking flight.

US singles are being offered the chance to fly from Los Angeles in October to “get amongst it” with New Zealanders at the “Great Matchmaking Ball” in Auckland.

When you offer seats like that, don't be surprised when a few people join the mile high club.

Don't be surprised if there are few not so singles taking the offer of the trip for various reasons.

Reminds me of the days my younger work associate used to get all his friends together to go to the Sydney Bachelor and Spinsters Balls where most of his friends were already in a relationship but just wanted to have some fun and disappoint other desperate people.
