Flight Attendants Share Their Embarrassing Mile High Club Stories

Flight attendants see it all during their jobs. From the moment passengers start boarding their flight, they can find ways to embarrass themselves that they would never otherwise do in public.

And when people start trying to engage in acts that should be done in private on a plane, flight attendants have no choice but to break up their fun, even when they’re 30,000 feet in the air.

Third Wheel

I was on a flight maybe a decade ago during spring break, so lots of college students on my plane. It was a large plane with a middle row with 3 seats, I was to the left and sitting on my right was a male army bro in his early 20’s, and to his right a college aged lady.

They get to talking, she is obviously flirting with him, he is talking about his army training, it’s not captivating at all, but they have chemistry.

I watch a forgettable movie and disregard their conversation. About two hours in I start to hear make out sounds next to me, I’m not gonna hate they can have their fun, but it escalates. I start to hear her moaning, no shame at all.

I feel a bit like the the 3rd wheel so I went to the lavatory to give them privacy. After returning to my seat, it was apparent he had done a good job and as we deplaned it was clear they were going to find the closest private space to finish the tryst.

They Wasted No Time

Flight Attendant here! We have an aircraft that has two lavatories next to each other and it’s designed to have a removable middle wall between them to make it into one big lavatory for passengers with wheelchairs.

Another Flight Attendant and I had to set it up for a disabled passenger on an international flight. When he was done, neither one of us were interested in putting the wall back so we left it and agreed we’d fix it after our break and before second service when people tend to start waking up.

A couple that must have overheard me and the other lady talking apparently wasted no time. We were notified by another passenger that the two were getting it on in their extended suite. By time we got to the lavatory they were both walking out at the same time looking a mess.

They got a good scolding by the senior Flight Attendant and a reminder at just how unsanitary the lavatories are.

Empty Middle Seat

Not a flight attendant but I once hooked up with a serviceman on his way to active duty in the Middle East while we were over the Atlantic Ocean. There wasn’t anybody in the middle seat.

So between them turning down the lights for the overnight flight and the blankets we had, it wasn’t that hard to be discreet.

No way would I do it in a plane bathroom, though. Those things are nasty.

Second Thoughts

One time I was flying to Vegas on a redeye flight that was almost empty. I ended up sitting next to this stripper who was flying home after being summoned for a booty call by some professional football player.

Anyway we started kind of hooking up in a way that could be considered “third base” and at one point I leaned in to kiss her and she said, “What are you doing? We are on a plane!” Guess she had second thoughts. Hope it wasn’t my breath.
