Yeah, like a room in the back specifically for crying babies (and their families).

- unsupp0rted 3y agoHow much extra per long-haul airplane ticket would you pay for this? I'd gladly add 20% minimum.
- thepasswordis 3y agoWhen my first child was born, he didn't cry and had to spend the beginning of his life in the NICU. When he first cried, after having his life saved by doctors, so did I. I love the sound of crying babies. It means they're okay enough to cry.
- unsupp0rted 3y agoI don’t have any children and don’t want any. I wish people didn’t trap me in metal tubes for 12+ hours with their crying children. My brain hasn’t been reprogrammed to enjoy it- actually the opposite; it’s a non-stop car alarm.
- YellOh 3y agoMaybe buy earplugs or noise-cancelling headphones? The parent probably doesn't want their child to be crying either, but sometimes there's not much to be done.
- unsupp0rted 3y agoI use AirPods Pro with aftermarket memory foam tips. They block about 50% of the noise of a crying child in the area. Not nearly enough.
- YellOh 3y agoIdk about AirPods in particular, but you could try layering good PNC earmuffs over your ANC earbuds? I doubt you'll get it <10%, but should still help cut a lot of the high-frequency crying.
- conradkay 3y agoBose QuietComfort 35 with white noise playing on them should block anyone not yelling right at you. Bought mine used after some extensive research, but maybe there's something better nowadays. If you added foam earplugs and music to that you'd be deaf.

- stevage 3y agoI don't have kids. I'm ok with the crying babies - there's very little anyone can do about it, and they're already doing it. I'm much less ok with poorly behaved kids bouncing around, yelling, etc.
