Budget carrier Scoot will ban under 12’s from a section of its aircraft as it launched a new cabin for passengers seeking “peace and quiet”.

The airline will dedicate 41 seats across five rows to its ScootinSilence product that will offer extra legroom – and no young children.

Chief executive Campbell Wilson said the kid-free zone will be “perfect for guests seeking an exclusive cabin, extra legroom and confidence that under 12s will be seated in another part of the aircraft”.

“No offence to our young guests or those travelling with them, you still have the rest of the aircraft,” Wilson said.

While the move is likely to be welcomed by some, families may not be quite so happy with the launch having already seen AirAsia X introduce a similar product.
