Influencer Amanda Cerny and real-estate agent Johannes Bartl turned a routine private-jet ride into the flight of their lives, exchanging tears, smiles and a sparkling sapphire ring while their weeks-old twins looked on.
The Mile-High Proposal
Bartl knelt in the aisle as Cerny, seated, realized what was happening. Video she posted shows her dabbing away tears while Bartl-inaudible in the clip-delivers a lengthy speech.
The oval blue stone, circled by diamonds, drew an immediate “gorgeous” from Cerny. After she said yes, Bartl pumped his fist toward the camera, exclaiming:

> “She said yes!”
He later added, pointing to his tears:
> “I could not hold it back. It was the most difficult question I ever asked in my entire life.”
Twin Babies as Witnesses
The couple’s daughter Annabelle and son Klaus-born in December-were buckled into personalized car seats just feet away. One of Bartl’s photos shows him toasting with a wine glass beside the babies, while another captures Cerny cradling both infants mid-flight.
A Decade in the Making
Cerny captioned her post:
> “Come fly with me 🥹. We were friends first. Then we chose each other. Ten years, homes built, pups raised, and two beautiful lives created… And now… we’re officially engaged.”
Bartl kept his caption short:
> “She said YES! ❤️❤️❤️”
Holiday Roots
The family had recently celebrated Christmas at the Four Seasons St. Louis, where Cerny praised staff for supporting them as first-time parents:
> “Every sleepy, sacred moment of this stay will live in our hearts forever.”
