Amsterdam: Corendon introduces expensive adults-only seats

So-called crying babies or children who shake the seat in front of them particularly often out of boredom are a nuisance for many travelers, especially on long-haul flights. Parents are often overwhelmed or simply don't care about their children's behavior. Corendon Dutch Airlines now wants to introduce an "adults only" zone on the planned long-haul flights. The carrier intends to offer a flight connection between Amsterdam and Curaçao from November 3, 2023. Since it does not have a suitable long-haul aircraft itself, it is using Airbus A350-900s that are wet leased from World2Fly. On board these aircraft, it wants to offer a special zone in which only adults are allowed to sit. The Dutch branch of the Turkish travel group expects this to lead to fewer conflicts above the clouds. According to the company, the zone is located in the front area of ​​the Airbus A350-900 and also consists of nine so-called XL seats, which are to be separated from the rest of the cabin by walls and curtains. The minimum age for use is 16 years. However, Corendon Dutch Airlines is not only doing this to provide more comfort, but primarily to make money. The normal seats in the adults-only zone cost 45 euros per way and the XL seats cost 100 euros one way. "On our flights, we always try to meet the different needs of our customers.
