An aviation influencer decided to take his wedding to the skies and got married aboard a chartered Boeing 747 plane thousands of feet in the air. Influencer Sam Chui, who is known for his aviation content, celebrated his wedding with a unique theme by hosting a "sky wedding".
On July 12, 2025, Chui and his wife Fiona boarded a chartered Boeing 747-400 at Fujairah International Airport (FJR) and flew over the Gulf of Oman along with their wedding guests.
The aircraft, which previously flew for Singapore Airlines (SQ), took a 95-minute flight at 6.30 PM and flew over the Gulf of Oman before returning to Fujairah by 8 PM.
In a video shared on Instagram, Chui is seen walking hand-in-hand with his wife Fiona on a red carpet leading to their plane. The couple, who wear all white, laughs as they enter their wedding venue in the skies, waving to the cameras.
"Love is in the Air. Welcome to our 747 Sky Wedding flight. Memories of a lifetime for both of us," Chui wrote in the caption.

Guests were seen gathered in a circle, toasting the couple, dancing and playing games aboard the flight, celebrating the couple's love thousands of feet in the air.
