Better Service In Back
Flight attendant Annie Kingston explained, “While most passengers tend to choose seats that are at the front of the aircraft, so that they can disembark first and have a better chance of securing their preferred meal option, flight attendants know that if you’re sitting towards the back, you’ll receive the most attentive service. The reason is simple: We like to avoid responding to call bells from the front of the plane because answering one means potentially flaunting whatever item the passenger has requested to everyone else along the way. This can cause a problem since planes often don’t have enough extra vodka, pillows, earplugs, and toothbrushes, or the time on shorter flights to deviate from the service schedule. For passengers sitting near the back of the plane, however, it’s much easier to slip in that second mini bottle of wine.”
Oxygen Masks
Yes, we all have the oxygen mask demo etched into our memories forever. However, don’t be too worried. Flight attendants have even said some of the masks have been in storage in those compartments for so long that they may not pop out immediately when needed. Oh and why do you need to secure your own mask before kids? Well, the altitude could cause you to pass out and in that case, you couldn’t help anyone.
