Where are life jackets stored and when are they worn?

• A. Stored under passenger seats and worn during turbulence.
• B. Stored in overhead bins and worn only by children.
• C. Stored under passenger seats or in accessible compartments; worn during a water landing or when instructed by crew.
• D. Kept in cockpit and worn at takeoff.

Answer: (C)

Access to life jackets and the moment they’re worn are arranged for rapid use in an emergency and under crew direction. Life jackets are stored under passenger seats or in accessible compartments so passengers can reach them quickly if needed. They are worn during a water landing or whenever the crew instructs you to don them. This ensures flotation gear is ready when it matters most and used only when rescue risk makes it necessary. Storing them in overhead bins isn’t standard for quick access, they aren’t limited to children, they aren’t kept in the cockpit, and they aren’t worn at takeoff as a routine precaution.
