And no, that doesn't mean I agree with the jerk from the OP. He didn't have the right to demand that your wife and child move.
I just prefer not to be around children (that's why I don't have any myself), especially in an enclosed environment where I don't have the option to move or leave.

Aren't there already lots of aircraft owners/operators out there licensed to carry passengers who will provide exactly what you want, right now?
Everybody cites Netjets as one option, but I'm sure you could phone your nearest private aviation airport and get a list of other operators as well. Outfits that will either fly one segment for you or sell you bigger blocks of time...
What exactly is the issue here? You ride a city bus, you have to deal with other people who ride city buses. You hail a cab, you get private treatment. Some thing applies here...
