I didn’t mean Frum Jew. I just didn’t want to spell out what I meant on a public website.
Why should I care if the person sitting next to me is Frum or not? I love all types of Jews (well except mean ones).
LB, that was Joseph’s point. But as other posters pointed out, and I think I agree, that is not necessarily the point. It would be one small section of the plane for those people who need to sleep or work and are easily distracted. It doesn’t hurt the family or children in any way.
What could be a problem is if it becomes so common for people to choose that section of the plane and it leads to discrimination against children and people start to really look negatively at people flying with kids.
But as long as it is kept to one small section of the plane, it shouldn’t be a big problem. And I think that section should cost significantly more in order to avoid those problems. This way, people will realize that the norm is that people fly with kids.

“In other words, are they not putting business and comfort in front of family and integration of generations?”
It’s not an either or situation.
When I fly for business purposes and NEED to work on the plane it is not putting business and comfort ahead of family. It is being able to do the business that supports the family and provides for all the nice intergenerational things we do.
All those hours spent commuting to a trial in Florida while working on the plane paid for bringing all the children and grandchildren, nieces, nephews and their families in for 10 day summer holiday/family reunion at the CTL compound.
When I fly with my grandchildren we fly coach so as not to disturb business travelers in First Class who may have work to do.
