The Week contest: Baby flight
This week's question: Japan Airlines recently added a "child icon" to its online seat maps, so fliers can identify seats that will be occupied by passengers ages 2 and under. In seven words or fewer, please come up with an advertising slogan that JAL could use to appeal to fliers who want to avoid screaming infants.
