In reply to ayngelina. Will definitely keep my eye out for it and let you know if I come across anything. As for buses, I always buckle up if possible - no matter how nerdy it makes me look!

Would love the same information for a bus. I have no idea where to sit but I’ve moved away from the front to avoid head on collisions.

In reply to Mark ("TravelWonders"). I always have my seat belt on, it's certainly overlooked by many passengers who usually only clip them on for takeoff and landing.

Thouhg the odds of an aircrash are thankfully very small, these are some nice reminders. I have always, as a habit, counted the number of seats between me and the nearest exit and noted whether it is in front or behind me. And I do like to have a seatbelt on. I think the seatbelt is important as that can prevent quite a few issues during turbulence like you say.

In reply to Erica.

Shoes are important, even after you get off the plane. It’s easy to stub or spill stuff on your feet in flip flops and in some parts of the world I couldn’t imagine not having the protection of shoes.

I always make it a point to notice where the exits are and also the people sitting directly in front of them. I’m not sure if there is any science behind it but I’m going for the exit with the person most likely to get that door open!
