10 Secrets Flight Attendants Keep Quiet About, Plus Expert Tips for a Smoother Journey

3. What are the best seats?

When choosing a seat, many travelers wonder which ones are best. Studies show that seats at the back of the plane are often the safest in emergencies and can offer better service. One reason is that the rear of the plane is where attendants keep extra supplies. If you need blankets or pillows, those in the back are usually served first. This can make your flight more comfortable, with attendants nearby to help. The back also tends to be quieter, making it a more relaxing place to sit.
