Why are seatbelts essential?
Aircraft seatbelts are crucial for passenger safety, especially during turbulence or unexpected movements. They keep you securely in your seat, preventing injuries. For children, specific rules often apply, sometimes requiring car seats or booster seats depending on age and airline policy, ensuring everyone's safety during all phases of flight, from take-off to landing.
