FAA: Passengers evacuating with carry-on items, putting lives at risk

The FAA is sounding the alarm about the dangers of passengers trying to grab their carry-on items during emergency evacuations. This practice can delay evacuations and significantly reduce survival chances in critical situations. The agency is urging airlines to reinforce the importance of leaving belongings behind to ensure passenger safety. This is a crucial reminder for both airlines and travelers, as it highlights the need for effective emergency protocols that prioritize lives over luggage.
