[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ignore the PP. I fly international business class for work all the time. [b]This will not annoy most people in that cabin.[/b] There are noise canceling headphones and in many cabins doors to the individual seats. We keep to ourselves, and if there is infant noise, it’s never on top of anyone else.[/quote]

I also got business class overseas for work often. I am also the mother of teens now.  I disagree with the bolded. Most people won’t say anything but I personally don’t like babies when trying to sleep.   I would never ever tell a parent this to their face in a cabin. They are entitled to bring their babies on board. And I will do what I can to support the parent.  Like offer to play patty cake or something if it looks like the parent is losing his/her cool or patience.  [b]But, yes it does bug me.[/b]

I do think the best thing to do is to buy two seats in coach.  But if you want to go business, that is your choice. Good luck. All of us parents have stories of that hellacious flight where the baby had an ear infection of the two year just melted down. You will get through this. [/quote]

Of course it bugs you.  It also bugs the people near the baby in coach.

Again, why do you think the best idea is to buy two seats in coach?  Because the people in coach are more deserving of being bugged than those in business class?  [/quote]

i'm not the pp you are quoting, but it is better to buy 2 seats, period.   The baby should have his own seat for safety reasons.   Two seats in coach is more affordable than two seats in business class, but if OP has the money to buy two business class seats, that's fine too.[/quote]

That may be true (though I don't think it's absolutely necessary), but the PP didn't mention a word about safety - she was focused on not inconviencing the business class travelers.  [/quote]
