A woman has revealed her disgust after a mother changed her baby's diaper while sitting right next to her on a flight. Flying can be stressful at the best of times, from turbulence to lack of legroom, or the thing that most people dread - being stuck next to a screaming baby or having a <a href="https://vt.co/lifestyle/woman-calls-for-adults-only-flights-as-child-cries-and-kicks-chair-for-the-entire-flight">child kicking the back of your seat</a> for hours on end with no escape. These things have bothered some passengers enough <a href="https://vt.co/lifestyle/child-free-zone-plane-adults-only">to call for child-free flights</a> - and some airlines have already started to <a href="https://vt.co/lifestyle/airline-praised-for-making-adults-only-section-on-their-planes">introduce adults-only zones on their planes</a> to ensure those that want to pay a little extra can travel in peace. One woman has taken to <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/childfree/comments/1777aly/childfree_flights_should_be_an_option/">Reddit</a> to explain her horror after a mother decided to change her child's diaper multiple while sitting right near to her. <img class="wp-image-1263233343 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/10/GettyImages-169982641.jpg" alt="baby on plane " width="2121" height="1414" />[[imagecaption|| Many travellers dread being sat near a baby on a plane.

The woman in the seat behind me had a very young child, probably 1-2yrs old. "He kept getting all worked up at various points, yelling incoherent toddler babble, kicking the back of my seat, sticking his feet up on my arm rest, and S**TTING his pants regularly. "Mom changed his diaper THREE times, IN the seat. Didn't bother taking him to the bathroom even though she was one row up from the very back of the plane, right near it. It stunk like hell." The woman revealed that she found the children on the plane more disruptive than a dog that was also travelling, writing: "This was a 4 hour night flight (10pm-2am). There was also a baby in another seat piping up screaming on occasion. "Ffs, one lady even had a puppy on the plane and he made zero fuss. Perfect little angel. Maybe he had had a sedative, idk. "But these parents should either sedate their damn kids or just not be allowed to bring them on certain flights. Good lord." <img class="wp-image-1263233340 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/10/GettyImages-121352105.jpg" alt="dirty diaper" width="2176" height="1408" />[[imagecaption|| The woman was horrified when the mother changed the baby's nappy in her seat.

Also 100% would pay extra for childfree flights though parents would scream DISCRIMINATION and then sneak their kids onto the flight somehow I’m sure because 'everybody loves babies why wouldn’t you love my precious angel who shrieks the whole ten hour flight?!'" Another shared their experience of flying near to a child, writing: "I was on a twelve hour flight in a middle row of three with a toddler with a cold. Yep, snotty nose, crying, grabby hands and the whole nine yards. The flight was to China, where I was travelling for work as well as taking a week extra for sightseeing. Two days later I was sick as a dog, missed my vacation and couldn’t work the whole time I was there. All because little Snotleigh was next to me and I couldn’t get away." One commented: "I honestly don’t know why it’s not a thing?? Make it once a week or once a month even and myself and other would happily end eagerly fill up those seats!"

I don't blame the kids, I blame the parents," while someone else responded: "Tbh it should be the other way around, parents should be paying double." Others have previously expressed that they believe it's unfair to discriminate against those with children, who are arguably having the most difficult time trying to keep their little ones calm while being judged by less patient passengers. Would you pay extra for a child-free flight or is that just unfair to families? Sound off in the comments below. <h6>Featured image credit: Marc Romanelli/Getty Images</h6>
