Its a very rare flight where these seats would save the day vs making their way towards their FAA approved jumpseats.

Has anyone ever seen an FA dive to safety in one of these seats?

The FA “break room” in the last 2 rows needs to go. If it’s a safety thing* they should be distributed on aisle seats only, throughout the cabin.

*it’s not
Agree. That crap has to go. Shut up or get a union.

i wonder if any of those FAs are commuters. Fun discussion when they “got the jumpseat, heres my stuff.”

This^^ I remember non-revving back from ANC with the family years ago on a 73. Gate agent gave us the back row so we could sit together. FAs were not happy. One actually had the gall to say “the next time
the agent tries to seat you here, kindly remind her that these are the flight attendant rows.”

This was before the advent of safety seats and like Leine said, they should all be aisles and not sellable if it’s not just a fig leaf.

Which it is.

What is a flight attendant safety seat? A seat that is blocked for passengers?

Seats blocked from non-revs and last seats to be assigned to revenue passengers.

To add to this, the company decided not to put FA seats in the rear galley, so the last row anisle and middle seats are kept empty “in case” there is sudden turbulence, “for safety”.

Unless, of course, they can sell those seats, then FA’s get nothing. If you ever wondered if safety has a price, this is it. The price of two revenue seats. Safety first, safety always, right?

Funny how commuting FAs on the jumpseat somehow always end up in those seats while they will stink eye and complain about any pilot in them.

I’ve seen them blocked off on one with seats in the aft galley. Don’t some of the 737s have 4 FA jumpseats on the back?

You guys are wasting your time. They will continue to give the FAs special treatment as long as they don't vote in a union. They aren't even quiet about it, quite the opposite, they want everyone to see it. This is the only airline I've ever seen where FAs get treated better than pilots.
