Some people's children! And I'm NOT talking about the crying baby. Anybody know if the baby stopped crying? Sorry, had to ask.

Too bad the people on the plane didn't get a chance to get a punch or two into the drunk American's face. What a pig.
Like throwing water into the babies face would help matters. Jerk wad. Some people's children is right..his mamma and pappa evidentally didn't teach him respect.

I can't believe someone would throw water in a baby's face. But, I will say that I have been tempted to throw something at some parents I've seen that have ignored their child while they screamed their heads off or used the back of my chair as a drumset.

Once kids can walk many parents on flights just seem to relinquish all responsibility and let the kids run around whatever. If kids are active then you need to take along plenty of things to keep them occupied, their favorite books and also some new ones to keep them interested. Take along some simple games and 'play with them'.

Just a heads up for those travelling Air Canada. I called & made reservations on Feb 3 @ 6:00PM. Was told that reservations wld be put "On Hold" until 6:00 PM Feb 4. Called Air Canada @ 8:30AM on Feb 4 to pay for my tickets. Was told "Oh, that reservation was automatically cancelled last night." The reservation agent had typed in "Hold til Feb 3" instead of Feb 4!!! So check & double check when you put anything "on hold" with Air Canada!! Fortunately, they were able to get seats for us but I was told that if I had waited until 6:00 to call back flight wld have been sold out! There were only a couple of seats left.
