Qantas woman under investigation over 'mile-high' sex romp

Melbourne, Oct 29 (ANI): A female Qantas employee is under investigation for a "mile-high" sex romp with a male passenger.

According to the Herald Sun, the two were sitting side by side in business class on a Melbourne-Los Angeles flight on October 6 when they started getting raunchy.

The woman, who is not a flight attendant, was travelling to the US on a discounted staff ticket and drank several glasses of champagne before the incident.

The fondling began when the cabin lighting was turned down during the 11-hour trip, and other passengers complained the pair tried to hide the encounter beneath a blanket.

A senior flight attendant told them to stop what they were doing, and ordered them to sit in different sections of the plane.

"The matter is being dealt with. The employee has returned to work," News.com.au quoted Qantas as saying about the incident. (ANI)
