I wonder how much time the "Mile High Clubbers" spend in the toilet.

It seems the new way to get famous is to do something controversial on an aeroplane so maybe a display of the mile high clubs normal practise would get some media coverage?

[spathiphyllum]

A public display that is ^ *

How do you prove you have joined The Mile High Club? is it just taken on trust ? Possibly you need to get a crew member to endorse your membership ?

[Ellipsis]

I don't know. They hand you a newspaper as you get on board, and then complain you spend too long in the loo ...

I think that people who brag that they belong to the Mile High Club are full of hot air. I mean how many passenger airplanes fly at 5,280 feet?

It's not actually a club there is nothing official about it

[sanmac]

I realized as soon as I had posted that I should have specified "cruise at":)

[spathiphyllum]

It's simple slang for saying "I've had sex in an aeroplane" if it's a commercial plane, then eww. A private yet? Well what do people expect when rich people have a few hours to kill.

Silly man and silly airline for offering him £500 !!

He was racially profiled? Tough. If the crew member had concerns he did the thing. Better safe than sorry.

Well,I can help expl... ;-)

(My head was in the clouds officer!)

I doubt whether the stewards are watching everyone who goes in or out of the toilets. Most likely a queue was forming and people complaining about how long this person had been in the toilet .

[237SJ]

^ on a short haul flight, I would imagine the crew would be far to busy to monitor the toilets.

[ummmm]

They don't really stop do they?

[237SJ]

I didn't. It was manic

"Perfectly normal and reasonable procedure.
The occupant good have had a heart attack, or be unconscious or dead."

Or , trying to enter the mile high club ?

[237SJ]

^ I'm sure the cabin crew membe had better things to do

[fender62]

onanism in the toilet, does that count as a mile high club member...
perhaps thats what he was up in the loo.
