A\u00a0flight attendant has opened up about her job, revealing “secrets” that only cabin crew know – including why they ask passengers to “stow away tray tables” before landing and takeoff.<\/p>\n

Cierra_Mistt on TikTok told her 3.5 million followers all about the unique profession and answered questions travellers are intrigued to know.<\/p>\n

In the video, titled “spicy flight attendant and pilot tea”, Cierra told her followers why cabin crew dim the lights before takeoff and landing.<\/p>\n

She said this is in the event of a crash or emergency.<\/p>\n

The TikToker said: “Flight will always turn off the cabin lights during takeoff and landing.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This, she said, is “because that’s most likely when we’re going to get an emergency crash and so our eyes are going to already be adjusted to the outside settings”.<\/p>\n

Cierra went on: “Speaking of crashes, the reason we ask you guys to put your tray tables up and your seats forward is if we get in a crash.<\/p>\n

“Because it actually only takes about 60 to 90 seconds for an entire plane to ignite in flames.<\/p>\n

“That being said, if you have your tray table down or seat reclined, you’re not only putting yourself in danger but the people sitting next to you.”<\/p>\n

Cierra also said that flight attendants sometimes “hang out” with passengers from the plane if they’re staying at the same place.<\/p>\n

She said: “This might shock you but I get asked this all the time.<\/p>\n

“If you invite us to come hang out with you guys, the chances are we’re totally down.”<\/p>\n
