Hannah Tesone, a 23-year-old flight attendant from Colorado, United States, emphasizes the importance of safety rules such as raising tray tables and opening window shades during takeoff. She becomes frustrated when passengers fail to adhere to these strict regulations.

"In terms of safety, I would like passengers to simply better understand why we ask them to put their seats upright and raise their tray tables during boarding and takeoff. Most emergency evacuations occur during boarding and takeoff, so something as simple as a reclined seat, obstructive bag, or lowered tray table could hinder someone from quickly and safely exiting the row in an emergency," she stated, as reported by The Sun.

Hannah goes to great lengths to keep her passengers safe. Her job involves not only serving food but also actively searching for threats and dangers.

Hannah became a flight attendant a year and a half ago because she knew she would enjoy the freedom it offered. She explained: "I wanted to be a flight attendant since high school because I've always had a strong desire to travel and didn't want to feel confined to one place. I also knew I wanted to explore the world and have a job that allowed me to do so."

Now she's living her best life, traveling the world.

As TravelWise reported, a former airline employee shared shocking memories of her job online.
