One of the most dangerous pieces of clothing in the event of an accident on board a flight is leggings, despite their popularity. Author Kristin Negroni shared with Sun Travel that in the event of a fire on board, leggings can leave terrible scars on the body.
According to The Sun: Instead of leggings or jeans, passengers are recommended to choose pants with ties, writes Conde Nast Traveller. These pants do not restrict blood circulation and help avoid problems with it. It is also advisable to choose pants made of natural fibers to prevent serious burns in the event of a fire.
In addition to leggings and jeans, it is also worth avoiding flip-flops. Former flight attendant Toni Koona emphasizes that during an emergency situation, various unpleasant things can happen, and therefore it is important that footwear should be on your feet.
Regarding footwear, Kristin advises opting for sneakers over high heels. For children, it is important that they have several layers of clothing, as it can often be cool in the cabin. It is also necessary to avoid synthetic fabrics and leggings when choosing clothing for children.
During the flight, it is important to remember about safety and comfort of clothing to avoid potential problems in case of unforeseen situations. Experts recommend refusing leggings, flip-flops, and synthetic clothing, choosing natural fibers and comfortable footwear.Read also
