My mom had an extremely friendly asian colleague who always carried a transformer in her travel bag whenever she flew to Japan or somewhere on business in case a kid began acting up. I met that lady twice, and then for three Christmases afterward (completely out of the blue), she sent me a present...a special edition Future Spawn, Manga Spawn, and finally some really cool large scale fighter jet that I think was from Macross. That lady was fucking awesome and made me actually want to write Thank You cards which I still do to this day if someone sends me anything.
 
I misread flight as fight. So I'm thinking about how to engage one in combat. Children are small. I think if you were to kick it enough like a mare punishing a foul it'd relent. I don't know how to stop the crying. Try shaking it to see if it stops.
 
Sometimes plane staff sell ear plugs alongside blankets and pillows.

I use ear plugs and noise canceling headphones for double the noise reduction. Sony WH1000XM3.
