Indeed! I have had occasion to fly a lot as SLF in the last year for business. My seatbelt stays fastened the whole flight except for brief trips to the WC. One imagines if you are on a private business jet, with commodious accommodation that the open spaces would be quite tempting to explore. That or one thinks that the seatbelt rules don't apply to you.
