Kelly-Rose Bradford asked:

"Is it really necessary to take a tiny baby on a long flight? I think there's an element of selfishness from parents who insist on not changing their lifestyle once they have children because there are some things that just aren't practical."

Bradford then suggested child-free flights, the "Today" show reported.

"We've got business class, we've got first class, why can't we have a family section?" Bradford asked.

People on both sides of the argument took to Twitter to state their cases either for or against #childfreeflights.
