Corendon Airlines is testing the “Only Adult” zones on flights between Amsterdam and Curaçao starting in November.
This area will be located at the front of the Airbus A350-900 aircraft and consists of nine XL seats with additional legroom and 93 standard seats.
There will be walls and curtains separating the “Only Adult” zone from the rest of the plane, making it ideal for travelers without children and business travelers who “want to work in a quiet environment,” according to a press release.
They should just turn the back of the plane into a ball pit and chuck all the kids back there before takeoff. The larger ones can take care of the babies.
The larger ones… you mean us adults who would not be able to resist a frolic in a ball pit?
Make this the new mile high club!
Generally not a good idea to enter mile high club around kids.
The last time I saw a bunch of adults using a ball pit people ended up being pretty pissed
I dunno, nine “XL” seats separated by a curtain sounds more like orgy class than noise-free zone
That’s the adults only zone, similar.
but definitely not noise-free (:

As if the flimsy curtain is going to do anything, haha. You could technically have a baby as close as the row behind that. And you can already hear babies crying from across the plane anyways, especially as we trend towards smaller, more efficient planes like the 737 max and extended range 320s.
This isn’t on smaller single aisle planes though, they’re doing this on an Airbus A350. On these planes there’s a galley between the front seated section and the rest of the plane, with another section before coach. So there’s a bit more than just a curtain.
Fucking finally!
Is the section going to be decorated with pineapples? And can we do adult activities? Cause if not what’s the point, ear plugs/buds easily take care of babies and Karens alike.
Ear plugs aren’t enough. Also they kick seats.
Just had two flights with a baby crying the entire time yesterday. All I had were airpods and they didn’t do shit to drown out the h8gh pitched screaming.
The most effective “headphones” I’ve found are using bone conducting ones, like shockz, along with construction ear plugs. The ear plugs on their own do so much for noise and the headphones at a pretty reasonable volume so the rest.
IEMs with foam plugs/buds. Works wonders.
I don’t fly without my deep insert etymotic IEMs. Haven’t heard a baby cry or a Karen on a plane in over 15 years.
So do adults, and even harder than children do.
I often book super early or late flights on purpose, they’re normally cheaper and typically don’t have any kids on them.
How much extra to use it though? I hope it catches on, but I doubt it will be reasonably priced enough for most travelers.
The article has the price. 45€ / $49
Thank you! I did read it but must have missed where the price was stated.
They should be charging the disruptive party a fee rather than the ones who just want to fly without the constant harrasment, screaming, and back of chair kicking.
No they shouldn’t. Going out into society means you have to cope with all kinds of things. Also, earbuds and noice canceling headphones are amazing devices.
mile high club soon to no longer be an unlockable achivement.
Let’s re-introduce smoking areas.
But make it only non-tobacco stuff.
Edit to all the people hating on me this time: if the children’s part starts like 3 rows behind your, you’ll hear them anyway and might’ve paid extra for adults only.
Let’s fly high and higher, lol
hope more will follow. no children on planes should be the normal state. unless you move or visit a dying loved one, there is no reason to bring a kid on a vehicle you share with other ppl…you are just selfish and rouining everyones day.
Yeah, just throw the kid in the garbage when you go on vacation. You can always get a new one when you get back.
I don’t like kids either but some of you don’t think twice about anything.
Children are people
Someone watched too much home alone as a kid.
That may be one reason, bot also travelling on a weekly basis. You may think your kid is special, but at best its mediocre, most likely it is the worst and y’all are giving every one a hard time.
Still, great comment
Yea, because children are cheap and every family can afford a private jet. Lol?
Ppl that are that selfish or stupid beyond repair to force new life through the upcoming hardships the world will encounter in the next years should be punished way harder than just travel bans.
also great attitude to load of your poor decisions on others and enforcing the burden on them
Well, sorry that the birth control did not work in our case… (We discovered the pregnancy in the 4th month, where abortion is not really an human opinion anymore, in my opinion) And we would have had to go to another country in order to do that, since it is only allowed until the third month here.
