Fu**in' Australians

Quite literally so:

Two in three Australian travelers are either members of the notorious Mile High Club or would like to be a member, a survey showed Monday.

Asked if they would consider a mid-air sexual encounter, almost half of 1,110 people surveyed wanted an adventure, while 12 percent already had mile-high membership wings.

"People are obviously looking for more stimulating entertainment than a movie or a CD when traveling by plane," Totaltravel.com global marketing manager Paul Fisher said.

Well, whether it's more stimulating than watching a movie is really rather down to who you're doing it with: certainly it doesn't usually take as long. But 12% already claim to be members? I'm surprised that 12% of Austalians have ever even been on an airplane....

As to my own membership or not....well, I've usually flown with my wife, which makes the CD of somewhat greater interest than it would to those who fly unaccompanied.
