You can prevent this by paying attention to your cabin crew, only moving around the cabin when it's safe to do so, and stowing your carry-on items properly. It's always a good idea to keep your seat belt on whenever you're in your seat, even when it isn't required.
在亂流中飛行時,對乘客來說真正的危險是墜落受傷。你可以透過仔細觀察你的機組人員來防止這種情況發生、僅在安全的情況下在機艙內走動,並妥善存放您的隨身物品。只要人在座位上,即便沒有被要求,隨時都繫好安全帶總是不會錯的。
