Thomson Airways has announced plans to include family-friendly seating and events on some of its future flights.
The UK airline specializes in holiday package transportation, and they say they’re looking for ways to enhance their customers’ vacation experiences.
Among the arrangements they’re considering is switching around some seat configurations so two rows face one another and have a table between them.
Photos showing the possible set-up feature children sitting quietly while mom and dad enjoy a hot beverage and do some reading.
The kids appear fully entertained by the digital and traditional paper diversions they’ve been given.
Perhaps as an acknowledgment that things don’t always work out like that, Thompson is also looking into other means of holding kids’ attention on long flights.
They include various destination-related activities and craft classes specifically for the kids.
If what adult travelers are looking for is respite from children, be they their own or other people’s, they may find themselves with options, too.
The idea of establishing a grown-up only area on some planes has been mentioned.
Child free seating zones are expected to debut next year, and the other concepts that make the cut to start rolling out in 2018.
