Have you ever had the misfortune of being on a plane with a crying baby or disruptive child? Well, Corendon Dutch Airlines has announced it will be launching adult-only areas on some of its flights later this year. 

Children will be kept out of the designated adult area by “means of walls and curtains,” which will “create a shielded environment that contributes to a calm and relaxed flight.” 

The seats do come with an extra charge though – you can add €45 to the price of your flight rising to €100 for the extra-large seats. 

Would you pay it? Andrea is joined by listeners to hear their takes.
