How to Meet New People This Winter? Consider the Airport!

November 27, 2013/in Date Stats /by Guest Blogger

Wondering how to meet new people this holiday season? According to research firm StrategyOne, almost one out of every ten adults has either dated or known someone to have dated a person they met at an airport or during a flight. So Axe spray — the industry leader in satisfying a need no one really thought needed to be satisfied — commissioned a study in 2007 with Sperling’s BestPlaces to rank America’s biggest airports by likeliness to produce a romantic connection. Their metrics include variables such as length of layovers and delays (which promote interaction, obviously) and cute shops and places to interact (beer gardens and magic shops). Basically, they came up with a formula to determine the likelihood of you meeting new people during a layover.
