Dates on a plane? Find the emergency exit... Our resident single boards the Jetstar Love Jet Singles include ET fan, Simon Baker doppelganger Our verdict? Forget the plane - try a kebab shop THERE is nothing more awkward than online dating...except speed dating with 24 desperate and dateless singles from a dating site, while locked in a cigar-shaped canister hurtling through the air. This is what happens when Jetstar and RSVP combine forces. This is what happens when you are the only single girl in the news.com.au newsroom. This is what happens when 48 per cent of the nation believes online dating is a brilliant idea. My name is Jen and I'm single. Welcome to my Valentine's Day. From. Hell. All aboard the Love Jet (pronunciation: lurrrvveee jet), the loudspeaker screams. Jetstar readies people for the flight. Picture: Jetstar Source: news.com.au The Love Jet is a long-form speed dating flight, where a very special bunch of 24 RSVP competition winners are whisked to the Gold Coast for a la-de-da lunch, 77 floors up. Two dozen curious looking singles, including three above-average looking men (fill-ins I discover), shuffle to their couple seats aboard the Jetstar flight. I pay particular attention to the emergency exits and the location of my life jacket. I'm anticipating the biggest plane crash in recent history. Single and ready to mingle - our lovers board the plane. Eight per cent of Aussies have found their match online, RSVP's Date of the Nation report claims. I'm thinking it may be safer to remain in the 92 per cent. This is getting horrible fast. 22A, an excited blonde, should have put down the champagne at breakfast. Her mating trick is an ET-phone-home impersonation as it "always works on dates." She is currently trying it out on Mr 22B. He counters her moves with a deep discussion about his membership in the half-mile-high club. That's love. The self-titled "bad-asses" in 28D and 28E are starting up a conversation about stealing plane pens and getting boozed before brekkie. He tells her she should be honest about her smoking habit on dates. She tells him she is stealing the inflight magazine, too. 29C breaks all the dating rules by sharing her story about a previous date. Apparently kissing like a dog "licking your face" is no longer a done thing. 29D presses the assistance button. 30F is perving rather too obviously on the Simon Baker-look-alike, who is discussing his love of Mark Twain quotes over in 24D. Actually the entire plane is looking in the direction of 24D. Imposter, I decide. Then out of left field, it appears we may have a love match. Things happen when you aren't expecting them, I've been told. ET and Simon Baker are making eyes at each other. Is love in the air? Maybe 1980's movie aliens are his thing. Wait, no, he is just eyeing off the air hostess. Let's go find love! Or have a freebie. As the still-lonely hearts disembark the plane with a new network of friends and free lunch in their bellies, they tell me it was "the trip of a lifetime." If you are desperate and dateless, my expert love advice is to not lock yourself in an aircraft at 30,000 feet with a bunch of randoms. Instead, head to your local kebab shop in search of a 3am meet-cute. Love is better blind*.
