Much higher ticket prices
Fewer flights
Dirtier planes

So.....idk?

Is every person on the plane a two year old?

I am not sure this is a real thing that happened or happened exactly as described. If it did, it is a ridiculous power play that might have gone really badly with a different individual. If the kid is just throwing the popcorn on the ground without eating it or throwing at other passengers, then sure then the kid can't have popcorn. I do sympathize with the people who have to clean up the popcorn and completely understand cussing the mother out under my breath for giving the little so-and-so the popcorn that they will have to clean up later on. I don't believe they would have asked an adult especially a man to clean up the popcorn if he dropped the popcorn on the ground.

Speaking of people wanting to do the same thing that infants do...

Sir, you were flying to Orlando, Florida. The fact that you only had one baby crying for 40 minutes is a bleeping comfortable flight!
