People who have sex on flying aircraft are said to have joined the “mile-high club.” A one-line joke is:
“I never joined the mile-high club because I don’t give a flying fuck.”
“Never joined the mile high club because I don’t give a flying fuck” was posted on Twitter on January 22, 2014.
Wikipedia: Mile high club
The term mile-high club (or MHC) is a slang term applied collectively to individuals who have had sexual intercourse while on board a flying aircraft. The exact requirements for membership are open to some interpretation.
One explanation for the act is the vibration of the plane, which may speed or improve arousal. Some say they have fantasies about pilots or flight attendants, or a fetish about planes themselves. For others, the appeal of joining the MHC is the thrill of doing something taboo and the thrill of the risk of being discovered.

Cat: Meow all you want for food, because I don’t give a flying fuck. In fact, I never joined the mile high club, so I never had one to give!

Despite countless attempts, I’ve never joined the mile high club. To be honest, I couldn’t give a flying fuck.
