Mile High Club "etiquette"

How many minutes is acceptable for this ? I've got my onboard toileting down to 17.5 mins. Also can I do both in one visit and have longer ?

I have a KLM flight in a few weeks time and noticed that they have now have a facility where, in the seat selection tool, passengers can link to their LinkedIn profile. Purely for professional networking I'm sure.

On Ryanair they play that annoying "Fanfare" noise and the cabin crew announces over the PA "Another on-time arrival".

Maybe they are married?

EK has a time limit of five minutes. According to late night host Jay Leno average to completion is three minutes ! Enough with two minutes to spare.

They were only ever on the middle pair seats on the 747 in B-zone, and I think they were discontinued because regularly replacing/removing the divider between seats caused so much wear and tear on them.

IIRC, Branson was boasting about 'real double beds', casinos and in-air gyms being on the cards for Virgin's A380s, so perhaps that's fuelling some of misunderstanding here.
