May I suggest the pax pre-flight safety briefing is given before push-back and all pax are [U]required to pay attention ]- close newspapers/laptops/audio devices as failure to pay attention may result in the offence of endangering the aircraft/pax
In addition to the usual pantomime, the briefing should include airline policy on drunken passengers and disembarkation at diversionary airfields, with the option to disembark before take-off if a pax is not happy with these conditions, provided their statutory rights are not infringed.
Most pax do not read conditions of carriage when booking
I suggest the slight delay would prevent problems en route and provide a better legal position for the airline
All the more reason for me to go on reading my newspaper during the reading of my rights
Your name might not be Miranda by any chance?
