> important that everyone has some situational awareness should something happen

I’m reading a book with noise-cancelling headphones on or asleep during landing and take-off. Most people, particularly frequent flyers, are similarly distracted.



Many countries and do not allow passengers to wear headphones during take off or landing for this reason.

I was quite shocked at it when an Air Canada flight attendant asked me to remove mine. I now always follow this practice, it’s a reasonable safety precaution.
