I can picture the cage:) We paid extra and upgraded to business class in Oct'03 and had the pleasure of only six other people on the flight over. Six other people and two little imps each vying for the position of Satans sidekick! At first it was cute when they ran past our seats, popping in and out from the vacant seats. Two hours in they had advanced to screaming at each other, hopping behind our seats and kicking, grabbing the back of our seats and pulling our hair while playing. Four hours in and my husband was ready to kill somebody (the parents who were sleeping quietly at the front of the plane). Five hours later all noise stopped. It was deathly silent. I swear people were afraid to breathe in case it woke them up. The flight attendants were giving the area where the children had collapsed a wide berth.
I have to say I have never seen such a stampede for the plane exit when we landed. It was like the hounds of hell were on everyones heels:)
