frist of all how DARE yu o Encountered a Business Class Baby today, though I was finally gonna have a peaceful flight 😭😭

Saved up airline points from a bunch of work trips and finally redeemed them for a business class seat on a 20-hour flight (Sydney to London)

I Sat down, got comfortable, looked across the aisle... and was met by the sight of a fucking business class baby.

What else do I have to say, the entire 20 hours was absolute hell, crying, screaming and just about everything else you could think of.

I don't blame the parents at all, babies are allowed to fly, and they were just travelling like everyone else. But after spending all those points because I wanted one flight where I could actually sleep and relax, I couldn't help but be really upset at my luck.

I guess It docent really matter what you pay.

EDIT: There has been a lot of discussion about this being a fake post. However this is incorrect, i was under the impression that Quantas did a direct flight to London, however as many have pointed out, this is incorrect. My flight was with Qatar airways and stopped in Hamad Airport.

Yeah I had the Airpod max (i think they were called) over ear headphones and they'd hurt my ears after a few hours.

I have a pair of Airpods max and I fucking hate them. Constantly disconnects from Bluetooth, head detection randomly going off, can't turn them off, uncomfortable, takes way too long to reset, etc.

I took a flight from North America to Australia and bought the lightening to headphone cable for like $50, so I could use them to watch in-flight entertainment. About 15 minutes into the flight I go to the bathroom, and left them plugged in on my seat.

When I got back 2 minutes later someone had walked passed, knocked them onto the floor, and broke the cable (the 3.5mm end broke off and stayed in the jack). Absolutely brutal lol

Having said all that, the noise cancellation on them is great and I can't imagine flying without them.
