This entire thread reminds me of the scene in "Up in the Air" with George Clooney where his character boasts about 'doing it' on a plane to Vera Farminga's character describing how it was a transatlantic overnight flight and he had to come up with a cover to justify going into the loo together.
Vera Farminga's character then retorts that she did it on a regional jet daytime flight.

I flew back from JFK in F last night. I spotted two guys from the F cabin "sharing" the same lavatories for 10 minutes.
I thought "you lucky b... , what a good way to spend the time in the sky!" And I hope they had fun .... Same as a passenger, what would you do? Report it back to the FA or to the CSD, talk to them, look at them with envy?

Ten minutes?
That would be a look of pity, not envy. LOL

This is brilliant! I admire anybody who'd dare join the club if it were - I don't think I'd have the courage or conviction to ask my partner let alone keep a straight face throughout the act, out of both fear and enjoyment!!
Kudos though to anyone who has!

Didnt KLM have an option of you linking your facebook page to your booking so you could choose who you sat next to. Im pretty sure in the advert it showed a couple sneaking into the toilets....

I am going to ask the obvious stupid question. Why is it called the mile high club? A statute mile equates to 5280 ft and a UK NM to 6080 ft. At these altitudes you would either be in initial climb out or on final approach. this would mean you would be in your seat with your seatbelt fastened rather than in the lavatory committing acts of public indecency.

From the Sexual Offences Act 2003

(a)he is in a lavatory to which the public or a section of the public has or is permitted to have access, whether on payment or otherwise,
(b)he intentionally engages in an activity, and,
(c)the activity is sexual.
(2)For the purposes of this section, an activity is sexual if a reasonable person would, in all the circumstances but regardless of any person’s purpose, consider it to be sexual.
(3)A person guilty of an offence under this section is liable on summary conviction, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 6 months or a fine not exceeding level 5 on the standard scale or both.]

Ah but the public do not have access, as the lavatory would be locked.
