Thank You All

First of all, Thank you very much for responding, I was just a little out of it, so feel like to speak out the situation on CX/KA, this is the reason why I posted it in, and I mostly fly CX/KA, second to SQ/UA.

Please accept my apology if I made anyone think that I am too mad or arrogant , but I am sure everyone here are good travelers and this is the stage we could share our experiences? And I do follow safety as it is my priority, I remain calm most of time in the real world.

If you read my thread opener again, I also questioning why they don't have a more serious reminder/video during taxing (after landing) while before takeoff they did have "safety" demonstration that ONLY point to the exit. SQ simply drop the demonstration and make you watch the video (a few times they turn the speaker louder for a noisy EY)

[/QUOTE]I think the flight attendant should add this reminder message instead of "pointing the emergency exit" when no one actually looking. or simply add a tv program for inflight health and "manner"[/QUOTE]

I don't really need to get off quick and knowing my luggage wont get there before me even I have priority handling. Having people come before your row may post safety issue too, everyone was trying to check if their luggage is "OK" or not, I saw numbers "Rush grabber" took their luggage but hit other pax head...what if that is really a 15kg as sebastravel suggested. If that really happen in a packed aisle, no space to balance then fall...um..we have bus uncle, train uncle, probably soon the next "plane uncle" who get off infront of you and got hurt will start scolding at you.

I agree it happens to be at J too, I was on SQ J to SFO last week, at 15K, since I didn't step outside of the aisle, there were at least 3 guys get ahead of of us (14K, 14F and me 15K)

Maybe is a cultural thing?? Thanks everyone again for sharing their experiences, and solutions. Happy Flying!
