Exit

I'm sitting in seat 8A. On the CRJ this is the emergency exit over the wing. I've sat in this spot on CRJs before, and I've sat in window exit rows on countless other planes. I've never been given instructions as clear and focused as those given by the Air Canada crew.

The stewardess sat next to me, explained everything (from what the pilot would say, what I should look for before opening the exit and even the mechanics of what the door would do once opened). Then she looks at my bemused face and asks if it was too much information and if it was making me nervous.

I wasn't nervous, but I gotta say, I wish more airlines would tell people exactly what will be required from them instead of treating the exit row as seats with more leg room.
