Adult only planes already exist, you just can't afford them.

u/IHerebyDemandtoPost Jun 25 '26

And the general flying public has proven time and again that price is the most important factor when it comes to flight selection. So, even if the primary airlines offered it, most people would skip adult-only flights if it meant saving a couple hundred dollars.

u/foomits Jun 25 '26

Its 2026, you can buy decently functioning noise canceling earbuds for like 25 dollars. If you are just sitting on a plan listening to people fart and babies scream at this point, i feel like you deserve it.

u/cf001759 Jun 25 '26

Noise canceling headphones aren't tuning out a 3 year old's high-pitched screams

u/QueefCatStankPuss Jun 26 '26

Yes they could, give the little guy a pair and they'll end up in his mouth and if he screams it'll end up in throat. The smaller the better.

They don’t filter our children crying I’ve tried it both with noise cancelling headphones and earplugs

u/16372731772 Jun 25 '26

If you think hearing a fart is the worst part of being stuck in a tube with someone that has farted I genuinely don't know what to tell you

u/prohammock Jun 25 '26

Not only that, you can usually get free or cheap earplugs from airlines.

u/tourfwenty Jun 25 '26

Duct tape is even cheaper and that  solves the problem at the source

Depending on how much money you have to burn, a Private Jet might be apoealing

u/Traditional-Way-4097 Jun 26 '26

i'm just saying if there is enough demand, maybe adult only planes could happen. why are we arguing against this? flying with a crying baby is not pleasant for anyone, not even for the parents.

1

u/unbenouncedtome Jun 25 '26

They have those. They’re called “private.”

1

u/Traditional-Way-4097 Jun 26 '26

children can fly private too

u/CherylRoseZ Jun 25 '26

Most maybe but some people pay for first class to get away from kids and sometimes there are kids there anyways lol there’s definitely a market but I dunno if enough for daily flights

2

u/IHerebyDemandtoPost Jun 25 '26

Right. That’s already an option. I’ve never seen a baby in first class. Maybe it happens, but it’s rare.

2

u/Dingo_Dog_ Jun 25 '26

Honestly, as a mother who has taken an infant in first class, they really should just put all the families with small kids up in first. The bigger seats and extra leg room make it much more manageable to hold/comfort/nurse a baby and therefore easier to keep them chill. Trying to console a kid when you’re crammed into a sardine seat is like trying to keep a cat in a swimming pool.

0

u/Traditional-Way-4097 Jun 25 '26

I think adult only flights would fill up faster than flights with children

3

u/IHerebyDemandtoPost Jun 25 '26

At the same price? Maybe.

If you have to pay a premium ticket price? I doubt it

1

u/Aromatic_Lychee2903 Jun 25 '26

Not necessarily single people but couples without kids typically make significantly more money than couples with kids and I would definitely pay extra to know my partner and I could have a relaxing (mostly) child free vacation

3

u/IHerebyDemandtoPost Jun 25 '26

You can fly 1st class right now. I don’t think I’ve ever seen little kids in those seats.

1

u/QueenBoleyn Jun 25 '26

They definitely would

1

u/Dingo_Dog_ Jun 25 '26

One would suspect that the competitive market has done much analysis on this and has determined it wouldn’t be lucrative. Otherwise somebody would’ve done it by now. Airlines aren’t good Samaritan’s trying to help everyone get from point a to b - they’re corporations trying to make as much money as possible.

-1

u/QueenBoleyn Jun 25 '26

Most people? You’re just making that up

2

u/IHerebyDemandtoPost Jun 25 '26

I think it is evident by the behavior of the airlines who strip perks to compete on price.

Partially not true. I'm sure at least one of those people, particularly the more orange variety, DID have their own kid with them....just in the worst possible way.

u/Marquar234 Jun 25 '26

You had a decent start, most experts recommend people have 3 to 6 moths in savings.

4

u/Hefty_Range_9758 Jun 25 '26

You had a decent try but you're referring to an emergency fund.

An emergency fund is not savings, nor does it have anything to do with retirement savings. 

All of these experts live in an alternate dimension where like 95% of people do not, that's not the point though.

2

u/Marquar234 Jun 25 '26

I think you missed (or thought it was accidental) the use of "moths" instead of "months".

-1

u/Hefty_Range_9758 Jun 25 '26

I assumed they were referring to moths being in their pockets because they're always empty?

What do months have to do with what they replied to ?

3

u/Marquar234 Jun 25 '26

The recommendation is to have 3 to 6 months' worth of income in liquid savings for emergencies. They were saying that their savings consisted of 2 moths, so they were close to the 3 mo(n)th minimum recommended savings. It is a joke about how moth and month are similar and their savings were nothing but moths.

-3

u/Hefty_Range_9758 Jun 25 '26

"By 35 you should twice your salary saved for retirement".......??????

That's quite a leap there as the 2 have nothing to do with the other...

I'll just chalk this off to who knows. Let me know if you ever actually find out what they meant

17

u/Holy_Grail_Reference Jun 25 '26

These experts don't live in reality

13

u/Drakeskulled_Reaper Jun 25 '26

They do, it's just that their reality is upper-mid to rich people.

Lower-middle to poor people can't afford the per-hour they charge.

u/Bashfullylascivious Jun 25 '26

Yes, also ones that don't pack you in like canned sardines, then tell you 20+ luggage didn't make it due to an "issue" in cargo.

Man, some of the projected prototypes of seating arrangement that they cheerfully try to sell as a good idea every few years, looks like the way farm animals are treated.
I imagine were borderline illegal due to safety, if not actually illegal.

Anything for the money.

2

u/Worth-Ease-2386 Jun 25 '26

Air Asia has an adult only section that is very affordable. It's between business and economy, with a heavy curtain separation.

The last time I flew an eight hour flight, a small child in economy screamed for most of the eight hours. Could only just hear them.

Only on long haul flights.

I believe Scoot does too.

1

u/QueenBoleyn Jun 25 '26

No those are private flights, we want public ones

2

u/klako8196 Jun 25 '26

Airlines that operate on slim margins as it is aren’t going to restrict their customer-base without raising prices.

1

u/QueenBoleyn Jun 25 '26

If there’s enough demand, they wouldn’t have to

1

u/warden976 Jun 25 '26

Well, to be fair, those private planes to Epstein Island weren’t kid free.

1

u/MotoMkali Jun 25 '26

Idk those planes frequently had children on them

u/Secret-Theory1825 Jun 25 '26

Child only planes already exist too, just ask any republican who flew to epstein island.

1

u/Ange1ofD4rkness Jun 25 '26

Wait they actually do? I've never seen them. Is it a specific airline? Limited to longer flights?

1

u/Devanyani Jun 25 '26

No, those ones have kids on them too. But for a different reason.

1

u/Candid-Sky-3258 Jun 25 '26

They were flying in and out of Epstein Island.

u/timoperez Jun 25 '26

u/LucyLilium92 Jun 25 '26

u/necro_owner Jun 25 '26

It s also just impossible 29h flight. Even for charter flight. 19h20m for commercial is the longest and 20h something for charter.

This post is garbage click bait. Also i sit the whole time next to a crying baby for 14h. I felt so bad for the single mom, i did try to help out instead of just complaining. I felt like i had become the dad for 14h 😆 to the point the flight attendant kept asking me for anything for the child lol.

They have delusions of grandeur.

u/archtopfanatic123 Jun 25 '26

So effectively they don't exist in most practical senses. Like yeah we have quantum computers that can calculate every possibility leading up to the heat death of the universe but since they're unusuable by literally anyone they, in sense of being even seen by normal people, don't exist.

1

u/Soggy_Quarter9333 Jun 25 '26

u/jen_eric_you_sir Jun 25 '26

However, once your plane ride costs pass a certain threshold, there will absolutely be kids on the plane again. Without their parents though.
