So is this an UL or are there actually scads of people doing it on airplanes? I have never been on a flight where people were going to the bathroom in pairs or getting into funky positions in their seats. Or is this why they close that curtain so you can’t see what 1st class is doing? So dopers, anyone in here a member? Anyone get their membership flying solo on a plane? Anyone ever see anyone joining the club? ---

My girlfriend (at the time) and I where flying to Orlando for vacation purposes. It was her idea (she seemed to get a kick out of the danger of being caught). She went to the restroom first, I followed her about five minutes (OK, it seemed like five minutes - it may have been 30 seconds) later. We did it in the airplane bathroom. Let me express that this is no **small feat**. That thing is **SMALL**. I mean damned small. It was nice, and yes I joined the “club”, but it was not nearly the best sexual experience of my life. Guess she is screwing other guys on airplanes now . . . - **NM** ---

AFAIK, it’s not just an UL, people really do do it. What do you mean, flying solo on a plane? Steering with one hand while jacking off with the other? My brother has a pilot’s license but I’m blessed if I can think of a way to ask him. Or do you mean just entertaining yourself in the privacy of your seat? Under a magazine or raincoat? Do you think the flight attendant doesn’t know what you’re doing under there, Sparky? It’s a cinch you’re not practicing semaphore signals. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Duck Duck Goose \* > **Or do you mean just entertaining yourself in the privacy of your seat?** This is what I meant. When I fly 99% of the time I am ill and cranky and that is the farthest thing from my mind. I was just wondering if people were finding other ways to pass the time before the beverage cart got to them. ---

I understand there’s a guy flying out of Santa Monica Airport (SMO) who has a business taking people up for their Mile High Club initiation. I heard there’s a limousine, champagne, etc., and then you go up for a flight in his plane. I think he has a privacy curtain bewteen the cockpit and the cabin. ---

My sister and her husband joined the “club” a few years back. Her telling of it is very similar to the above post by **NothingMan**. A quick rear-entry bending slightly over the sink area in extremely cramped quarters. ---

I have never been on a flight where people were going to the bathroom in pairs or getting into funky positions in their seats.** On the long transatlantic “sleeper” flights I’ve been on, it would be easy in the middle of the night for two people to sneak into a bathroom. At least a 1st Class or Business Class one. Nearly everyone is asleep, including the stewardesses. > [@](#): > > **Or is this why they close that curtain so you can’t see what 1st class is doing?** No, they close the curtain so us in 1st are not offended by the sweating, unkempt masses packed into Coach. > [@](#): > > **So dopers, anyone in here a member?

I am a founding member of the teen lesbian not quite mile high club… When things between quietgirl and I were starting to get…odd… we were on a band trip to London. She’s afraid of flying, and had never been on a plane before. We held hands the entire trip to London, as well as the way back. More than 24 hours of hand holding, that was. Ever so romantic. ---

On a flight to Guam in a B-52D bomber, a sergeant and I made out in the bomb bay leaning against some big boom-booms. Aren’t _you_ glad the earth didn’t move? 😉 ---

Been there, done that. Little 2-seater plane, gave the pilot a fun time. Sounds pretty stupid now. ---

I got a BJ on the flight to Marine Corps boot camp…I know, it doesn’t count, but it’s a good airplane sex story non-the-less. Oh, and I was sitting in an aisle seat at the time. We woulda made it to the bathroom to complete the Mile-High initiation but the plane hit turbulence.
