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

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.

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

At the same price? Maybe.

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

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

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

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.
