You'll be okay if you do it during the descent, with everyone's ears popping, they won't hear anything. Bring a whole new meaning to going down on someone....

I find this amusing, due to the fact when they did the first commercial fight to Sydney they released a picture of the A380's s suite made up as a double bed with rose petals scated over it and a bottle of bubbly near by.

I saw a quote from a passenger who flew first class on the first flight...

he said something along the lines of SA doing everything but providing oysters to make the trip romantic - and they are trying to ban nookie after providing champers and a double bed?

Maybe they're banking on an all protestant customer base.
