Corendon Airlines is testing the “Only Adult” zones on flights between Amsterdam and Curaçao starting in November.

This area will be located at the front of the Airbus A350-900 aircraft and consists of nine XL seats with additional legroom and 93 standard seats.

There will be walls and curtains separating the “Only Adult” zone from the rest of the plane, making it ideal for travelers without children and business travelers who “want to work in a quiet environment,” according to a press release.

I often book super early or late flights on purpose, they're normally cheaper and typically don't have any kids on them.

Lol, what?

Why does when you book your flight impact the likelihood of children being on it?

People with young kids don't tend to book 6am flights, or midnight. You try not to mess up their sleep schedule, or you get stuck dealing with the consequences. You rarely see kids on any super early or late flights.

That's completely false, but okay.

I'd like to see where you're getting your information from. If it's purely anecdotal, then my own anecdotal evidence completely negates it.
