Those are side issues. The main problem is the behaviour of the children on the plane. -- Roland Perry

Why do you lot make things so difficult? :-) Only semi tounge in cheek I would say that on some flight types (holiday charters) its the pis**d adults, who are predominatly tourist and not travellers, that cause the problems.

They are more predictable, as a result of the [usually short/medium haul] route (and airline etc). In 30 years of flying I've only ever encountered mobs twice on long haul. Once was a plane load of drunk Australians travelling from Hong Hong to Japan (to get a connecting flight home). The other was a bunch of "Southern Baptists" who insisted on singing all the way from Dallas to London. -- Roland Perry |
