A RANDY couple were hauled from an easyJet flight by cops when they performed a sex act minutes after takeoff, a court heard.
Lovebirds Bradley Smith and Antonia Sullivan were caught red-handed trying to join the mile-high club while returning from a holiday in sunny Tenerife, Spain.

The couple were flying back to Bristol on March 3 aboard a packed 7am easyJet flight – with Smith, 22, sat in seat 16A and Sullivan, 20, in 16B.
Shortly after the plane launched into the sky, unemployed Smith was heard asking his girlfriend to “w**k me off” before his girlfriend covered his lap with several coats.
The couple’s exploits were witnessed by three disgusted passengers – including their unlucky neighbour in 16C – who called time on the in-flight friskiness and reported them to cabin crew.
Prosecutor Maree Doyle told Bristol magistrates’ court: “After a few minutes the witness was aware that the couple had re-arranged some coats over Smith’s lap and there followed vigorous hand movements beneath the coat.
“The witness sitting next to them could see what was happening while a mother and teenage daughter sitting behind the couple could also see what was going on.”
Ms Doyle added the teen told her mother “I can see his bits” – prompting the furious parent to also complain.
Sullivan insisted to flight attendants that she was only rubbing Smith’s leg.
But they were escorted from the plane to the tarmac by an easyJet manager and cops, who took them in for a criminal probe.
Today, both pleaded guilty to one count of outraging public decency by committing a sexual act in a public place.
Sentencing the couple, 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?”
Smith was ordered to complete 300 hours of community work and Sullivan, a full-time care worker, got 270 hours.
The couple, of Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wales, were both ordered to pay £100 compensation to each of the three witnesses.
Last year we told how holidaymaker Piers Sawyer was caught on camera romping with a girl he had only just met on an easyJet flight from Luton to Ibiza.
A viral clip of him and the unnamed woman having sex in the loo at 33,000ft was viewed millions of times after a steward swung opened the door.
But Piers, 23, who was banned by easyJet for the off-limits bonking, later revealed: “I didn’t even get her number.”
