I flew Aeoroflot once for 10 hours and the cabin looked exactly like that...with food and garbage on the floor, except there was no turbulence.

When the pilot says fasten your seatbelt, he means just that. It is difficult to feel sympathy with people who ignore common sense.

Especially know from my flights on Russian airplanes that Russians seldom like to wear seat belts let alone turn phones off.

Article states the seatbelts sign had NOT come on. I agree though that everyone in their seats should, as always advised, keep seatbelts fastened.

Many years ago returning on a flight from Portugal - the plane suddenly dropped height, there was no warning ..The oxygen masks dropped down - peoples hot drinks spilt everywhere and people/crew standing in the aisles fell over .. When the pilot eventually spoke ( which seemed like ages) but was prob just seconds/minutes, he apologised and said that the plane had gone into a cloud formation that had caused turbulence?? I still wonder to this day if it was a near miss ....I am sure it happens more than is reported - but who knows! - all I know is that it was pretty scary..

Something's not quite right here! The minute even the slightest bit of mild turbulence occurs, or when turbulence is forecast, the captain immediately turns on the fasten seat belt sign and also makes a PA. Most times it's more of a preventative measure. So in this case, for there to be such extreme turbulence and for people to not only not have their seat belts securely fastened but worse still to be actually walking around the cabin is utterly ridiculous and most unusual and totally again airline safety procedures. I always keep my seatbelt loosely fastened when on a flight for this very reason.

An unexpected air pocket can be hit at any time, before the Captain can react. And yes, that's why you should stay in your seat with your belt fastened.

when the seatbelt sign goes on you put your seatbelt on, end of --- i can never understand why people think that does not apply to them!

The article states the seatbelt sign was off therefore no time to put it on.

It was sudden. No warning from god that it was about to happen? And you can't wear a seatbelt standing up can you?!

I've always hear cockpit warn of impending turbulence & to belt up. Pilots can see radar warning of turbulence so surprised at this happening.

No, radar only shows precipitation, e.g. rain drops in clouds, storms, etc. You do not get radar returns from air. The warnings mostly are from weather reports, and reports from pilots ahead on the airway who have already passed through. Pilots do get a brisk warning just before a near ground windshear though.

How exactly can you wear a seat belt on the toilet, the last time I flew on a plane I didn't notice any seat belts in there

So the stewardesses serving, passengers getting something from the locker or going to the toilet all their fault eh? Don't be silly.

RobReply tocheshire girl
Don't talk such rubbish.Some passengers would be waiting to use the toilet. Others may just be stretching their legs, as recommended, to avoid deep vein thrombosis. The cabin crew will be going about their business. If the captain had been aware of the turbulence in advance he would have issued an instruction to keep the seat belts fastened. If the passengers had then ignored this then it would have been their own fault but not in this case. Think before you post, idiot.

On a long haul you have no choice but to visit the loo, if you are unlucky, the turbulence hits whilst you are in there!

Apparently, those who were injured did not have their seat belts fastenedThere you go!

MagicsbabyReply toalberto stepytoe
If you were going to toilet and signs were not on etc.. It would not be uncommon for 19 out of a flight not to be fastened at some point when signs are off.. And food would not be around either..

DM, it's completely inappropriate to use the word 'carnage' in this report. Nobody died, thank God.

I was on a flight with bad turbulence. The flight crew was yelling at passengers to sit and get belted in.. The passengers did not listen. If they got hurt I would not blame the airline.

No Excuses
This is why babies should be required to have their own seat and their own approved or airline placed adaption (like a car seat) should be required. I have never understood why that is an acceptable means of protection for babies in the air.

Isn't this what seat belts are for?

ArrivisteReply tonibaileyy
Yes, but people have to get up periodically to go to the toilet, check on family members, and stretch their legs. You cannot realistically be strapped into your seat for the duration. In this case it seems that either the turbulence arrived without warning, or there was a lack of communication between cockpit and cabin.
