Fly The Family Friendly Skies: Specialty Seating For Families May Be The Next Promising Perk

I had gone skiing with an old flame only to discover that our romantic getaway was interrupted by a bunch of families and college kids making all sorts of noise at all hours of the day and night. Not only did we not have any “privacy” but we didn’t even have much peace and quiet.

That’s precisely the premise that led to many marketers investing in the idea of family-friendly eaters, hotels, etc. And, now the latest to possibly be added to the family-friendly family are the airways.


In fact, having a special section on airplanes for those traveling with children sits well not only with those sans kids but also with moms, dads, grandparents, and others with children in tow. In fact, many “with child” (or children) as they cast may be, are hoping for a section that will accommodate them and their kids at the various stages of development. Plus, being surrounded by other kids, especially in their age group, they suggest, may also make flying more fun for the “little ones”.

But, despite the accolades of such a specific arrangement, the measure still remains under review and pending action and final approval.
