Flotation Devices

A fantastic job done and congratulations to all. One thing though, I am delighted to see that all the passengers on the wing of the A320 had full life jackets on. On many US carriers you are told that your seat cushion can be used as flotation device, that seems a cheap way out to me. Perhaps its time for all US carriers to install full lifejackets on all domestic operating aircraft?
