Corendon Airlines is the first airline in Europe to offer a child-free cabin, as a new service that gives customers more peace of mind.
Following the moves of Air Asia X and Scoot, Corendon Airlines has decided to build an "Adults Only" cabin on some of its flights.
Starting in November, Corendon Airlines will introduce over-16-only cabins on flights between Amsterdam and the Caribbean island of Curaçao. The area will be located at the front of the plane, separated from the rest of the plane by partitions and curtains.
To purchase a seat in the adult-only area, passengers on Corendon Airlines flights will have to pay an additional 45 EUR one way. There will be 93 seats reserved for passengers over 16 years old. There are also 9 seats with extra legroom, which cost 100 EUR one way.
Corendon Airlines founder Atilay Uslu said the child-free zone is intended to cater to “travellers looking for more peace and quiet during their flight”. It also gives parents with children less to worry about disturbing other passengers.
Before Corendon Airlines, several airlines had offered adult-only cabins. Air Asia X had a “quiet zone” on its long-haul Airbus A330 flights, reserved for passengers aged 12 and above. Singapore-based low-cost carrier Scoot had a “ScootinSilence” cabin for passengers aged 12 and above on its Boeing 787s.
Some airlines are not keen on the idea of separate adult sections. TUI, KLM and Transavia have said they have no plans to separate children into specific cabins on their planes.
But the idea has caught on with travelers. In a survey conducted by Redfield and Wilton Strategies, 1,500 American adults were asked whether they would like child-free zones on public transportation. Nearly 60 percent agreed that adults-only zones on planes and trains “would be a positive thing,” while 27 percent disagreed and 14 percent were unsure.
