Blue

Whether it’s for directions, a favor or even just to pass the time on an airplane, knowing how to strike up a conversation out of the blue is a marvelous skill.

I think blue means a stranger. What's your opinion?

The idiom 'out of the blue' means 'unexpectedly'. It is not really appropriate for the context of your sentence.

No. "blue" is a metaphoric reference to the sky.

"out of the blue" is an idiom that means "with no apparent cause, reason, preparation, or expectation".
