His parents have half a flight to clean it up.

Or sew together a new backpack or come up with the money for one.

Or the parents can clean it like the first comment says. Alternatively, they can pay for a new one.

It's a toddler. They get sick. It's not the parents' fault.

The parents are still responsible for the repercussions. They ought to clean it up after their little one

The kid is the parents' responsibility. Also, letting the kid get close to the OPs backpack means they weren't keeping him in control.

It may not be the parents' fault, but it is certainly their responsibility to deal with the aftermath

Flying with a kid can easily be a nuisance. Sure, a kid can get sick, but usually you can tell if they are, and it is the parents' fault for not making sure their kid doesn't throw up on someone's stuff.

Toddlers, sooo unpredictable.

I would have demanded from the parents the amount of money if would have costed to replace the backpack. You shouldn't be inconvenienced because someone else doesn't know how to use a condom.

This is why I'm glad I don't have kids.

Nah, having your own kids isn't bad. It's other peoples' kids you want to stay away from you.

Why is your backpack not in the overhead compartment?

It could have been worse: they could have thrown up _in_ your backpack.
