RyanAir planning to show XXX on-board? Another Erin Andrews incident in the making?

Passengers of RyanAir may encounter sex scenes similar to the one alleged to Keith Clinkscales and Erin Andrews, or the famous sexual romp on-board Kingfisher Airlines, if Michael O’Leary, the irrepressible chief of the low cost carrier has his way.

Mr. O’Leary says the airline is planning to show porn on board its flights using portable media devices.

On almost the same day the world was already abuzz with media stories that Mr. Keith Clinkscales, a former senior vice president at ESPN, allegedly masturbated underneath an Apple iPad while seated next to the sexy ESPN correspondent Erin Andrews, onboard a flight.

The Big News Network quoting The Sun reports

Airline chief Michael O’Leary said they are looking at launching an in-flight web offer that is similar to hotel room pay-TV services. It would allow passengers to log into a Ryanair app and then would pay to gamble, watch a movie and even see sex scenes.

‘I’m not talking about having it on screens on the back of seats for everyone to see. It would be on handheld devices,’ The Sun quoted O’Leary as saying.

In April 2009, model Sarah Hannon and two others were arrested for acts of sex and fighting on-board a Kingfisher Airlines flight from Bangalore to London.

What are your views? Do you think RyanAir is one to something? Or given the fact the airline wants to charge for use of the toilet can one expect drooling, grunting, shaking neighbours on our next RyanAir flight?
