Scoot Airlines, a budget airline based in Singapore will start a no children zone on their air crafts. The Huffington Post reported that the airline will enact "ScootinSilence" where passengers can be upgraded to a 41 seat cabin of the plane where kids under the age of 12 are banned. Passengers can pay approximately $14 U.S. for the service.

The CEO of Scoot Airlines, Campbell Wilson said according to The Huffington Post, "No offense to our young guests or those traveling with them - you still have the rest of the aircraft."

In Feburary, Malaysian airline Air Asia launched a quiet zone area on selected flights where passengers can opt to sit in. Here, children under the age of 12 are banned from the first seven economy class rows on Airbus A330-300 flights that go to Nepal, Australia, China, Taiwan, Japan and Korea.

Scoot Airlines runs daily services to Sydney and five flights a week to the Gold Coast.

"Malaysia Airlines famously became the trendsetter when they banned infants from first class in 2011 (they designated a no-kids zone in economy class last year)," reported The Huffington Post.

Tracey Spicer who is a columnist for Travellers said to The Sydney Morning Herald, "It's something I feel very strongly about, it's treating children like they're animals in a zoo. And it treats families like they are second-class citizens. You end up with all the families shoved down the back. It will make every flight a nightmare for families."

"Some of the worst flights I've had have been because of adults, not children. Those who had drunk too much, or were smelly, or too big to fit into their seat. It is discrimination. Where does it end?" She added.

However, airlines like Air Asia have been receiving positive feedback about its child-free zones. Stuart Myerscough who is the airline's head of marketing said to The Sydney Morning Herald "We have not received any negative feedback. In fact, the service is always heavily booked and we consider it to be an overwhelming success and one of our most popular innovations yet."
