If you've ever fantasized about joining the infamous mile high club, fantasy could become reality much faster than you think. An Atlanta-based company called Mile High Atlanta now offers couples the opportunity to travel into the skies for a romantic getaway complete with a custom-fit bed, brand new sheets and a complimentary bottle of Champagne.
The founder, corporate pilot Bob Smith, says he and his business partner conceived the idea five years ago as a way to make some extra money on weekends. He has piloted more than 75 flights, with couples from all parts of the country paying $299 an hour for a roll in the sheets at more than 5,000 feet.
Historically, joining the mile high club refers to having intercourse more than a mile off the ground, says Gloria G. Brame, a clinical sex therapist in Atlanta. It's been reported that the founding member of the mile high club is Lawrence Sperry, the inventor of the autopilot (who, ironically, crashed while engaging in sexual activity with a woman while he was flying). Brame says many people find it fun and exciting to have sex in places that are prohibited.
"Having sex on airplanes has been around for almost as long as flights have existed," she says.

,,, stainless steel toilets in confined spaces have never really lit me up. They're like Los Angeles - you're there because you have to be and you're out of it as quickly as possible.
