Flying may feel routine, but takeoff and landing require careful attention to safety. During these critical phases, passengers may notice flight attendants sitting upright with their hands tucked under their thighs. This is part of their trained brace position and helps keep their bodies stable and controlled in case of a sudden impact.<\/p>\n
