Safety Demo - really needed?
Hi!
Travelling more and more often in the past few years I have come to a
realization that probably around 60% of the passengers don't even bother looking at the flight attendents/ PTVs during the safety demonstration. While safety is very important should it really be done each and every flight? The chances of getting killed in a car accident are much greater than in a plane crash, yet the driver or whoever never breifs the passengers on what to do in case of fire, smoke inside, seatbelts etc. When people drive or are passengers they automatically know that putting the seatbelts on is a good idea for their own safety, yet every flight, FAs run around the aircraft making sure that everone is tied in and briefed during an emergency. I think that if an emergency does arise, example: ditching, flight attendents will have enough time to breif the passengers on what to do and therefore eliminating the need of safety demos.... What do you think?
