Over half of fliers would limit where kids can sit on planes




Most consumers would like a families-only section on flights, according to a poll released Tuesday by a travel website.

Personally, it’s the handful of obese, obnoxious people as well as the incompetent TSA, not to mention the the attitude of most airline personal who want to call the police at the slightest frown in their direction. This has me driving where I need to go almost always. Hell, I don’t even like kids, but they are actually less of a nuisance then everything else. THEY don’t have control of their behavior.


Quote from the article:

Nearly 60% of more than 2,000 travelers polled by Skyscanner, a fare-comparison website, say they want airlines to create such a section. In addition, nearly 20% said they'd prefer child-free flights.

Skyscanner posted the poll on its site Aug. 11-23, after a confidential settlement last month between Qantas and a 67-year-old American passenger who sued the Australian airline after a 3-year-old screamed on her flight last year. The woman complained of excruciating pain in her ears and was taken to a hospital before the Darwin-bound flight departed from Alice Springs.

Most poll respondents in favor of creating a families-only section said they don't have young children and "want to sit as far away as possible" from them.
