A Simple Tip That Could Save Your Life

and the lives of your loved ones.

DO NOT fly on any airline other than reputable ones like Qantas or Air New Zealand

or Emirates.

Best Seats For Surviving A Plane Crash

Where you are seated could well save your life in the event of a crash landing.

Pick a seat close to an exit door.

Pick an aisle seat. Every second matters.

Pick the rear portion of the aircraft as passengers in the tail of the aircraft have a 40% better chance of out-surviving those in the front! Not good news for those who prefer flying 1st class!
