Here’s a flight we would have loved to have been on…

Other than having your seat constantly kicked, or someone recline into your footspace, there’s not much that’s more annoying than a baby crying throughout your flight.

Well two gay dads had the best solution in case their child did start crying. Before the flight, they handed out goodie bags, with a card in them, to nearby passengers explaining the situation.

The card read: “Hi Stranger.

“My name is Marit. Today I’m 18 days old. I’m flying home to europe with my dads. This is my first flight ever.

“I will do my utmost to be on my best behaviour to ensure that you have a peaceful flight.

“I would like to apologize in advance if – I for any reason loose my cool, my temper, my ears hurt or my tummy gets fussy. I think my dads are more nervous than I am, so they made you this goodiebag.

“Have a great flight.”

And one of the people who got this goodie bag was former One Direction singer, Niall Horan. Niall confirmed on his Twitter that Marit was as “quiet as a mouse” for the 10-hour flight.

Responding to Niall’s tweet, one of the dads said: “thanks for making our little princess famous over night.

“Much fun.. both dads are fans of your music, and pretty sure Marit will be as well”

And just in case some people are wondering what was in the goodie bag, another Twitter user confirmed that there were sweets and ear plugs inside.
