A jet pilot sent his best wishes over the intercom to a couple caught in “happy reproduction” in the loo on a France to Sweden flight.

Travellers on the Norwegian Airlines flight to Stockholm erupted in laughter when the captain revealed that two people had joined the mile high club during the journey.

A passenger told how he said in Swedish: "We'd like to send our best wishes of happy reproduction to the couple that ventured into the bathroom earlier on."

The woman traveller, who asked not to be named, added: "People around the plane started cheering and laughing and there was a lot of gossiping about who it could have been."

The pilot shared his message of congratulations on flight D4314 from Paris to Stockholm.

But passengers who did not speak Swedish were left baffled by the message, with the pilot saying simply 'Welcome to Sweden' in English over the tannoy.

The nationality of the couple caught romping by cabin crew was not revealed and the airline has declined to comment on the incident.
