Safety

  • The crew's instructions and the safety card for your aircraft come first: procedures differ by airline and aircraft.
  • Battery and baggage rules differ by airline and country: check the FAA's PackSafe page or your airline before you fly.
  • Practice only, not crew training.

General information, not professional advice: your manual and local rules come first. You use this at your own risk; see our Terms.
