Key Takeaways:

- Cabin safety personnel support the operation of the aircraft by monitoring cabin hazards and risks.
- DK encourages all passengers to read every safety card as each airplane model has different emergency procedures.
- Despite the technical errors that Boeing aircraft have been facing, DK believes that they are working hard to fix the problems. In general, commercial airplanes are still the safest form of travel.
