A young couple were caught trying to get hot and heavy onboard an easyJet flight by some other passengers and were subsequently taken off the plane.
Bradley Smith, 22 and Antonia Sullivan, 20, originally from Wales, were seized by police after the easyJet plane touched down during a flight back to Bristol.
Fresh off their holiday in Tenerife in the Canary Islands, the couple decided it would be the best idea to join the Mile High Club, or a variation of it, while in the air, The Sun reports.
It wasn't as if they tried to hide it on any level either, as they'd reportedly disgusted nearby passengers with their actions.

After the plane departed Tenerife, passengers could reportedly hear Smith telling his partner to 'w**k me off', which she then followed by covering his lap with several coats, according to The Sun.
As subtle or inconspicuous as they perhaps thought that they were being, three horrified passengers spotted what was going on, and reported 'vigorous hand movements' coming from underneath the coats to cabin crew.
One of these unfortunate passengers included the person sitting next to them.
While other people that were unlucky enough to catch a glimpse of the public sexual acts were a mother and her teenage daughter, who reportedly claimed that she saw Smith's 'bits' while his girlfriend was at work.
Sullivan later claimed that she was only 'rubbing' his leg, however, they were escorted off the plane by an easyJet manager and the police.
The two appeared at a hearing in a Bristol magistrates court today, with both being charged with outraging public indecency by committing a sexual act in a public place - of which they both pleaded guilty.
When giving out punishments, Judge Lynne Matthews said: "You had no regard for the feelings of other passengers.
"There was a child sitting behind you who was able to see what was happening.
"Who do you think you are and what right do you think entitled you to behave in that way in full view of people on that flight?"
As a result of their actions, Smith was given a 300-hour community work order, while Sullivan was given 270 hours, in addition to both of them being ordered to pay a compensation of £100 to each of the three witnesses who saw it all unfold.
An easyJet spokeswoman said to The Sun: ‘We can confirm that this flight to Bristol was met by police on arrival, due to the behaviour of two passengers onboard.’
