Jimu News commentator Wu Shuangjian

On October 26, during the boarding of Spring Airlines flight 9C6167 from Jinan to Guilin, a passenger directly reached into the emergency exit cover with his hand and kept grabbing the cover between the flight attendants' knowledge of the safety exit seat. The flight attendants stopped their uncivilized behavior at the first time and persuaded them. After assessment by the purser, the passenger did not meet the criteria for sitting at the safety exit, and the purser changed his seat to another non-exit seat. Flights are not affected. (According to the Oriental Network on October 26)

Previously, a netizen video exposed that on a flight of Spring Airlines, a dispute between a passenger and a flight attendant caused onlookers, suspected to be caused by passengers touching the safety door. In the video, the flight attendant's emotions are obviously very excited, and she said that she is really excited, this is a safety regulation, and she has done nothing wrong. Once the video was uploaded, it immediately caused a heated discussion, and some people even accused the flight attendants of not speaking well as service personnel.

The aircraft safety gate is the emergency exit of the aircraft, and the escape slide and air cushion are lowered in the event of an emergency to help passengers escape. Passengers sitting in the vicinity of the aircraft safety gate have the duty to assist flight attendants in opening the safety gate in an emergency, but passengers are generally not allowed to open the safety door without permission, so as not to endanger aviation safety.

Therefore, before the plane takes off, the flight attendant will generally evaluate the passenger sitting next to the security gate to see if they are able to open the door, so as to save time in the event of an emergency. The second is to inform the relevant safety knowledge and teach it how to use it. If the flight attendant believes that the passenger does not meet the criteria for sitting at the safety exit, they immediately change their seat.

Industry insiders pointed out that after the aircraft flew to a high altitude, due to the impact of the internal and external pressure difference, coupled with the heavy aircraft safety door, the safety door could not be opened in the high altitude. But that doesn't mean there are no risks. Because when the plane is taxiing or docking, it can indeed be opened. Once opened, the slide is automatically released. If the slide is released, the safety gate needs to be repaired.

In recent years, there have been many accidents in which passengers open the safety gate of an aircraft without authorization.

According to Jimu News, on December 16, 2013, after a flight from Nanning to Chongqing landed, a man pulled a red wrench on the safety door, causing the security door to crack a slit of about 1 centimeter, and the man was subsequently detained for 5 days; on January 12, 2015, a flight from Lhasa to Chongqing arrived at Jiangbei Airport, and a middle-aged man suddenly opened the security door of the aircraft. Later, the man bore the economic loss of 35,000 yuan caused by the opening of the hatch slide; on June 26, 2019, at Don Mueang Airport in Bangkok, Thailand, an international flight to Wuhan Tianhe Airport was sliding before taking off, a safety gate on the left side of the fuselage was suddenly opened, and the passengers involved were taken off the plane by the Thai police...

It can be seen that opening the safety door at will is not only something that affects one's own or others' travel, but also may face financial compensation or penalties by laws and regulations.

Therefore, the passenger put his hand into the cover of the safety door, obviously violating the relevant regulations, changing the seat is still a humane disposal, and it is not too much to get off the plane!

Disasters often accumulate in the slightest, the flight attendant has the responsibility of maintaining the order of the cabin to ensure flight safety, and it is normal to see passengers touching the emergency exit handle to stop the violation. Otherwise, how do travelers know what's at stake? Therefore, some netizens believe that the flight attendant is not too loud, and even should be rewarded.

The calmness and calmness of the flight attendants are used in emergencies and can have a soothing effect. When encountering behavior that endangers the safety of the aircraft, there is nothing wrong with strictly stopping it.
