Air hostess reveals her intimate moments in the cockpit with billionaires and high end customers

New York: An air hostess has confessed to having intimate moments in the cockpit - amid a long list of sky-high exploits.

Mandy Smith, from Teesside, Hartlepool, spent more than a decade as an air hostess for Virgin Atlantic.

Now 41 and happily married, she has spilled the beans about her wild partying days miles high in the air.

In her book Cabin Fever, she revealed a life of billionaire suitors and VIP parties.

She even ticked off having sex in the cockpit with her pilot boyfriend while he was flying a plane.

She said: "Since I had a steady boyfriend, I decided the time had come to cross another item off my bucket list: the Mile High Club.

"Jonathan [her boyfriend] was flying me down to the Florida Keys in a two-seat Cessna when I decided to seize the moment. I climbed on top of him while he was flying and sealed the deal."

She said she "couldn't believe what goes on thousands of feet in the air".

In an article in the New York Post she wrote: "More than once, I had a passenger slide his hand up my skirt when I was attending to the overhead compartment.

"And when the lights are dimmed on overnight flights, I’d see randy passengers masturbating while everyone else around them slept.

"Then there was the couple in the throes of passion who ran around upper-class buck naked."

Mandy said working as an air hostess was "more than I could have ever imagined when I was a little girl growing up in the modest town of Hartlepool in northern England."

She describes "epic parties" at the InterContinental in Johannesburg where a steward once "tossed a sofa out of a hotel window".

She writes: "I always brought some wild props with me — my suitcase was like a traveling sex shop."

She describes decadent party thrown by Richard Branson, saying: "I couldn’t believe my eyes when I walked up to the moat leading to the mansion. Richard shook my hand and welcomed me to the party.

"I’ve never seen so much Champagne in my life. Richard managed to spray everyone with all the open bottles.

"I stayed up for 24 hours, wired on Red Bull and vodkas. At the end of the glam weekend, guests left with goody bags in hand — stuffed with condoms."

After years of encountering billionaire businessmen whose affections came in the form of designer clothes and accessories, she eventually pined for something "real".
