Cabin sections and crash studies
No seat is reliably safest. In two small US studies (37 crashes, 1971–2007), passengers in the rear third of the cabin died less often than those further forward; on this aircraft that is rows 21–30. Results depend heavily on the type of accident, and the FAA says there is no safest seat. The most consistent finding is sitting within about five rows of an exit; rows 6, 19–25 are more than five rows from any exit.
| Section | Rows | Crash-study pattern | Seats within 5 rows of an exit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Front | 1–10 | Higher (front and middle don't differ consistently) | 54 of 60 |
| Middle | 11–20 | Higher (front and middle don't differ consistently) | 48 of 60 |
| Rear | 21–30 | Lower in both studies | 30 of 60 |
