Honestly, I will never wrap my head around how people can happily bring infants on any flight where you can expect people to try and sleep, it’s incredibly lucky if they don’t spend some of it screaming their heads off—I would be mortified if my choices were preventing hundreds of people from sleeping. But I’m not going to rant too hard about that.
Why on earth hasn’t any airline started marketing adult-only flights?
It seems like a complete no brainer to me, I would choose it every time and pay extra for it.

Lemme guess: kids?
Also to answer your question https://www.alternativeairlines.com/child-free-flights . No child-free flights, but child-free zones on flights.
All the people here talking about “just use headphones with ANC” haven’t been a seat or two away from a crying child. It’s not the child’s fault and often not that of the parents (they have to travel too), but having adults-only flights would be amazing. I’d pay extra too to be on a long-haul flight without kids. Some adults do act like kids too, but it’s not possible to ban them.
And to the people acting mortified and all high and mighty: there are adults only places. Are you going to get offended about those too? The proposal isn’t to ban kids from all flights. It’s to offer some flights without kids.
