Back in the days when I flew short haul quite a lot,
and before the PC people stopped children sitting next to
male adults, I was quite often asked if I minded having one of
these children sitting next to me. I did fly on a route which was popular
for children traveling on to join a long haul.Actually it did help with the tedium of the flight,
and no need to eat your airline pudding or sweeties either.
