• Safety requirements for occupying an Extra-legroom Seat

  Extra-legroom Seats are located near the emergency exit doors and are subject to the flight safety guidelines of the Civil Aviation Department of Hong Kong.* A passenger may occupy an Extra-legroom Seat if he or she meets the following safety requirements and will not obstruct emergency exits, impede the crew in their duties, obstruct access to emergency equipment, or hinder aircraft evacuation.

  In order to occupy an Extra-legroom Seat, you must:

  • be at least 12 years of age at the beginning of the journey.
  • be able to understand and carry out safety instructions in English or Chinese.
  • be able to promptly reach, lift and throw open the exit door in an emergency.
