As for the crew...

What was the saying?

"When the water's too deep, the smoke too thick, the fire too hot..."

Yes, cabin crew are trained to save lives. But they are also trained that when they feel they are in grave peril, to get out, as said above. That moment is different for each crew member, hence one may exit before another (and neither would be wrong)

HotDog, well said

What nonsence!!...

if you are trained to do a job, you do the job!

You don't sod off and wimp out to look after #1!

And then try and justify it!

Unless, of course, you're nothing but a ....!

And if the job involves getting out when you can?

A live crew member outside the aircraft is a lot more useful in the aftermath than a dead one inside.

So, what's this job that involves looking after #1 first? Especially when you are employed for safety and emergency duties?

At some point you will do more good outside helping people who are alive than inside joining those who are dead. When that point occurs, is a judgement call that you are not qualified to make unless you are there at the time.

Ah yes but you’re not employed to sacrifice your life to save someone who can’t be saved. When you jump into the fire and sacrifice your life for someone else then your words may carry some weight. Until then you are only making yourself look stupid.
