People do have sex on airline flights. It's not really that uncommon, especially at night on redeye flights. Often, flight attendants will just look the other way, rather than causing a scene, I think.

I'd think, though, if someone was loudly objecting to some sexual activity, a flight attendant would have something to say about it.
