Firstclass,
"Remember, the flight attendants are there primarily for your safety. In the unlikely event of an emergency landing, when the cabin is filling with smoke and you are all fighting to get to the door, of which there are the bare minimum because the airlines doesn't like losing revenue generating seats, let's hope the F/A s manning the door are from a culture that believes in being assertive and can SHOUT A LOT TO CLEAR ALL THE PAX IN FRONT OF YOU SO YOU CAN ALL GET OUT AND BE A SURVIVOR"
Think about it. What are the desirable characteristics of a flight attendant who you might be one day be depending to save your life?
PS I think your money is pretty safe
