Adult only planes

I think that we should have "quiet" flights no chldren under the age 0f 12, no drunks, no alcohol and no phones. Just decent people wanting to travel in peace.
CurlyWhirly You may like children around you when you are on holiday but when you work with them 39 weeks a year you need a break. So i understand Adult only hotels.

You do get some irritations on planes however it's not the children who are a pain in my experience it's the person sitting behind you on a night flight who insists on talking for hours on end when you are trying to sleep.
Unfortunately ear plugs don't always work.

drunks are worse than children - serving alcohol 24/7 in airport departure areas should be banned. Re children - with a heavy heart I sat across the aisle on a flight to Sri Lanka, to a family of three small children and their mother. It was amazing. All three had separate goodie bags, with colouring stuff etc. The wonderful mother produced food when necessary and made up titbits for later from the meals handed out. The oldest girl (about 8) looked after the 5 yr old and the mother concentrated on the baby. When the children were tired mother tucked them up under blankets and they slept. It was a revelation. I congratulated her when we disembarked - what a fabulous family.

Adult only flights - forget it, even business class does not guarantee a quiet flight, far too expensive to try to segregate passengers.

One tip, families with babies are usually given the seats with extra room at the front of any cabin, so choose seats to the rear for yourself. Personally I always take a couple of paracetamol at the start of the flight which relaxes me and makes me sleepy.

Sit at the rear of the cabin and you get stuck by the lavatories.

Sit in the middle then.

The middle seat in a middle row has nothing to commend it.
Private jet it is then. ?

Forgot my other airline aid, a set of noise cancelling headphones, plug into the entertainment or your own phone and it blanks out everything else, all for £25.

Rosalyn, that’s what I was made for. A private ✈️ Shame that I haven’t got the means?
