do you think it possible/probable that airlines could have children free flights especially on night flights.

do you think it possible/probable that airlines could have children free flights especially on night flights.by children i mean under 12

No but it is possible to fall all business-class flights, which presumably would price young families out.

But of course that is not guaranteed, particularly for offensively rich families or for families who come from for tax jurisdictions, which do not apply a means test for family tax credits, thereby increasing the chances that these families can afford business class fares for their brood :p

I don't know about you guys but I seem to have this horrible habit of attracting kids in J when I fly. So none of you should ever fly with me. :P Or maybe I attract offensively rich families? :)

I reckon it's the latter ;)

Noted. Can you please list all your future flights in J? :-)

I am not "offensively rich" but do fly my brood business class, usually using points. My kids are well behaved and are the first to sleep and last to wake overnight ( aged 2 and 5). In my experience is is more often the under 2's who cause the issue and they don't have to pay for their bassinette. I also resent the looks and stares I get when loading my brood into the business cabin, particularly on the last SIN-MEL flight in QF, most of which were from the crew who trreated my kids as second class to everyone else in the J cabin ( my daughter wasn't allowed a vanity kit the same as mums as they would run out for the adult female guests!). If you have a j class ticket you should be treated the same as the rest in business regardless of age ( sex, colour, disability, nationality or any other discriminatory term). If you want to guarantee a child free flight perhaps you need to start saving for that gulfstream?

I used to sometimes take my little sister with me in business class, including QF. She was always hugely disinterested in the proferred amenity kits (Bulgari, Givenchy etc). But her face would just light up whenever a FA offered her a colouring book and pencils and occasionally a small glass of milk........what a strange little sister I have!

Hear hear

I would be taking the names of the FA / Bursar and writing a letter of complaint. FF points or $$$, you pay for J, you get everything you are entitled too. ITs not as if your Daughter is going to ask for a bucket load of booze.

I am a QF supporter, but that is just wrong. They should carry enough vanity kits for every seat.

i think one airline has kids free in 1st class.iam guessing Malaysian Airlines.correct me if i'm wrong

Hey, I wish I could get rid of everyone who annoys me from my general vicinity too. Unfortunately that's unlikely to happen.

It would be nice but won't happen.I guess between Singapore and Australia If I fly Singapore Airlines and I am from Adelaide will have to look for the days they have the 8:30am services on the way home.

it's called public transport for a reason....so if you require a 'child free' environment/cabin...i suggest you book the whole cabin you choose to fly in...or fly private jet...then you will have complete control over your 'requirements'... and by the way...'childish' behaviour isn't restricted by age!! ;)

Maybe there should be a children zone on the plane where families could be seated .once again for flights after 10 pm 

Why do people keep trotting out this embarisingly self centred discussion topic.

Children are passengers. Get over it.
