Qld: Crying babies unpopular with Aussie travellers

It's no surprise a survey shows Aussie travellers want crying babies and their parents
segregated on overseas flights.

More than two-thousand-400 people responded to the online survey by totaltravel.com
.. and an overwhelming 81 per cent of Australian travellers voted for a separate area
on long-haul flights.

Three per cent said babies don't belong on planes at all .. while the remaining 16
per cent said everyone deserved to be treated equally.

The website's PAUL FISHER says parents should plan for the trip .. taking toys and
games to occupy their children .. while other travellers should use portable music players
to block out noise.
