Attention to Air Safety
When boarding the aircraft, make a mental note of all exits, and count how many seat rows you pass from the exit to your row. This will expedite your escape route in case of an emergency landing if there is smoke and/or power loss in the cabin. And by all means, pay attention to the flight crew! No matter how boring or uninteresting it may sound, their instructions are vital. And read the aircraft emergency procedure manual completely before takeoff. These are located in the pouch right in front of you. Make sure you do this as it pays to be prepared for flight. Knowledge is power, and armed with the basics you can sit back and enjoy your flight.
