Whatever the case, we're glad to have been pointed to The Mile High Club, an official website devoted exclusively to the practice! According to them:
- intercourse must take place at an altitude of "no less than 5,280 feet (a mile above Earth) (sorry, hot ballooners!)
- "most veteran pilots" argue that one needs to have been "at the controls of an airplane" in order to claim membership
- there is actual legalese issued by the Department of Transportation regarding the practice
Not yet a member? That's okay -- this site has everything you need to quell your burning loins: first-hand accounts, flight referrals, and even sweatshirts to boast your status.
Our favorite part? This NSFW picture, naturally, after the jump:

Because, really, the airplane just gets in the way.

Great to imagine that an hour ago, someone was butt naked humping in the seat I am assigned on the plane.

Hot air balloons are allowed to fly above 5,280 AGL.
If we get above 9,000 the pilot is required to have available suplimental breathing equipment in case its needed. Above 11,000 the pilot is required to use suplimental breathing equipment. So Balloonists 'can' qualify for Mile High Club, providing they watch their altimeters.

Before now, I had never met ANY man worth spending more time than absolutely necessary in the bathroom of an airplane. Now, I would be afraid that when I opened the door after doing the deed, there would be a Federal Marshall waiting for us with handcuffs in hand. Not to mention, I still don't know ANY man worth hanging around inside the john for....

Eliot- How high do you think they flew when they went around the world in a hot air balloon? Much higher than 5280 feet.

I have no idea what they are talking about when they say "sorry hot air ballooners". I am a commercial hot air balloon pilot and we are allowed to go to 12,500 asl which in most areas is well above the 5,280 feet you need to join the mile high club, which by the way I'm a member

LOL!!!! You, the flying public, think your getting away with something by joining the "Mile High Club"? As a flight crew member for thirty years, we know what your doing in there, and on my flights, I bring it to other passengers attention by annoucing it over the PA.

If you are even considering joining the mile high club, don't do it.
You could catch a disease that would make a Venereal Disease look good.
Those bathrooms are used by hundreds of people before there ever cleaned. They are just covered in germs and bacteria.

Unless you are on your own private jet, I would say don't do it. For God's sake commercial airlines have smelly little boxes they call bathrooms. . . . ewwwwww GROSS! ! !

Just one more rule to add to the Rule Section which for 30 years years i have understood to be a prerequisite:You must meet the prey for the first time ever after boarding. ie: YOU ARE NOW FREE TO MOVE ABOUT THE AIRCRAFT

Once in a four seater Cesna. She was tall and skinny.
Otherwise we would have never been able to complete the "act".

Sorry, Mr. Pipedreams but 4 seater Cesnas don't travel over 30m feet, but guess that's why you call yourself Mr Pipedreams !!!!

I realize this sounds naive, but I will never understand the mechanics of this! Do you do it in the bathroom? In your seat? On a commercial airline or a private jet??
Sounds great in theory, but how on earth does one accomplish this?!

I agree with some of the other posters: sex in a filthy cramped toilet? Romance at its finest! I mean, come on, people; you can't wait until checking in at the hotel?
