Airplane Apology Agreements

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Carter's is Easing the Travel Journey for Families with Fussy Flyers

— April 20, 2023 — Life-Stages
Traveling with babies and young children can be a daunting task that requires careful planning and consideration and Carter's Airline Apology Agreement was created to help parents get on good terms with other passengers. This contract and cash package is for parents with fussy young travelers who want to avoid judgmental looks, side-eye or snarky comments from fellow travelers so that they can enjoy a more pleasant journey.

While some parents give away earplugs or other small items to make peace with their fellow travelers, Carter's created a way for parents to win friends with a little cash. As the branded marketer says, "With the acceptance of the Airplane Apology Agreement, neighboring travelers agree to allow Carter’s to rent their patience for a few hours on behalf of parents and assume the risk of potential annoyance by tiny frequent flyers."
