What a Tiny Triangle Above Your Plane Seat Means
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 июн 2024
- Many of us think flying is a great way to travel, but things can get dull if you wind up stuck on the tarmac waiting for takeoff. While you're sitting there wondering if it would’ve taken any longer just to drive, you might notice a little triangular sticker above your window. Only four windows on each plane are marked this way.
Usually red or black, the decals are just large enough to spot if you're looking for them but easy enough to miss if you aren't. But why are they there? Is it part of a conspiracy? Well, it turns out the answer isn’t quite so dramatic but interesting nonetheless. Especially if you're a plane lover!

SUMMARY:
- If you look closely the next time you're on a plane, you'll realize that the triangles line up with the front and back edges of the aircraft's wings.
- The sticker is there so that the flight attendants know at a glance which windows to look through.
- Many airliners feature a hidden compartment where its exhausted crew can catch up on some much-needed sleep.
- The exact placement of the room varies, but the crew’s quarters are usually found in a small windowless compartment directly above first class.
- Larger planes can feature up to ten bunks, as well as a separate pilot’s quarters directly above the cockpit.
- If you’re flying in a jet made by Airbus, you might’ve noticed a pair of little yellow loops sticking up from the otherwise smooth, white surface of the plane's wing.
- A plane's wings need to be smooth so that they remain aerodynamic, but that makes them pretty difficult to stand on.
- Thanks to this fabulous technological breakthrough, evacuating passengers need not worry about an unfortunate tumble down the aircraft’s wings.
- Airliners need to maintain internal pressure for the passengers to be able to breathe comfortably at high altitudes.
- This tiny opening is known as a breather hole and plays a vital role in keeping you flying.
- Most airliners flying today feature a handrail running the length of the overhead compartments. Their primary function is so that the crew can safely move about the cabin during turbulence.
- The most common complaint people have with air travel is the lack of space. Even if you aren't particularly tall, you've probably experienced this for yourself.
- If you're in the middle seat, well, you're just going to have to deal with getting the worst of both worlds.
- Feel around on the bottom of the armrest, and you’ll find a little button near the hinge. Press it, and you're free to move that pesky armrest out of your way.
- This gives you plenty of room to move around, and is a big help when you’re trying to get your bag from the overhead compartment at the end of your flight.

Hey, plane lovers! How long was the longest flight you've ever been on?
18 hours
1 hour
rectangular??
21hours about but it was actually 2 planes but as soon as you get it one you get to another
20 hours
It means "Doritos allowed in this row"
😂 😂 😆 lol
xD
LastExile hahahahhaha
lame
Hahahahahah!!!!!
0:16 it says rectangular instead of triangular
Great observation
The mistake may have been intentional, to see if anyone is paying attention. i caught it too, and realized it isn't one of those things that matter.
True...
@Sheepgaming IKR
No its 0:18
Is no one gonna talk about how he pronounced illuminati “il-lu-mi-na-tai”?
ahahah, yessss

Here's a question I'd like answered: Does flight staffs' luggage ever get lost/misdirected at all, or at the rate that passengers' luggage does?
Generally no, we usually keep our luggage in the cabin. We often have an overhead locker set aside just for crew use
Jay Kaye are you a flight attendant or crew member?
@@davispark9631 I am a flight attendant 😊
@Jay Kaye can I ask a question is it true that flight attendants have test everyday and do you guys eat the same food as the passengers
@William Filippone ok
Random person scrolling through comments have a good day
probably you missed the SUBSCRIPTION part, thanks
Thank you ! and you have a busy evening.

And you too kind sir!
@Marcus St John awwwwwww thanks! :)

Thanks, I wondered about the triangles on my trip to NYC
Brightside: A brilliant display of technical ingenuity to prevent sliding.
Me: What was it? A slide resistant paint on wings? A magnet shoe rack with shoes for walking on the wing? What?
Brightside: A rope!
Me: ....
anyone else feels like the video voice-overs sound more happy and playful than before, not that I'm complaining.
Who came here to scroll through the comment section?
Below is the number of people who agree...
Ohhhh~ I agree¶
0:16, can't tell the difference between simple geometric shapes. Well done Dim Side.
Thanks for sharing some interesting features. As for long flights, try 18 hours from Sacramento to the far east in a turbo prop plane.

Two of my cousins moved to Australia and they visited 2 years ago, and they said it was night time when they landed in Australia, so I guess it would be hard to remain conscious when on a plane for a few hours. I cant even survive 4 hours
I can’t survive four hours either without getting sick or falling asleep if I can I’ll be surprised

I came to comments to see if someone noticed it!
@@suryanshsinh notice me
I didn't even knew that there was a triangle there.
I just saw the 🔺️ for the first time just on Oct 07. I was two rows over, I thought it was a stain 🤣 then after 10 mins of staring I saw the shape,and figured that it had to mean something
I lived in Lebanon and I had a chance to change my life and go to a whole new country with my parents and I, of course, took it our flight was 18 to 19 hours long, honestly it was huge and super comfortable, now I have been living in Australia for 2 and a half years it's a amazingly great country I really recommend you guys to come here on ur holiday
Australia is expensive come to India!
If your average in Australia you'll be rich in India 🇮🇳
I'm from :-(
Ah yes the deadliest animal country
This is better than my homework ngl
3:09 there is no Boeing 773, there is a 737. Not trying to be rude, love your airplane video’s
Boeing 737 don't have crew bunks as they're not designed to be long haul, they're probably confusing it with the 777 or 787
773 = 777-300ER
You might spot the triangle if the aircraft is fairly new, but as planes age, the stickers or paint comes gradually comes off. Also there is a secret latch that opens any bathroom door.
but the class is not 3 feet long
You're so educational I can't stop watching your vids💘💘
If your seat has a triangle, it is either the safest seat or where the crew can have a decent sight

Good luck dude i was here since 20 mil and i love your videos
I've been on a flight today on an Airbus A321-200, and I saw one of them. This brought me to this video.
Video title: “what a tiny TRIANGLE means above your seat in an airplane”
Also video: “rectangular”
Me: wait-
Rich passengers: We seated the first class, one of the most comfortable seat on the plane
Business class passenger: am i joke to you?
FA: *AM I A JOKE TO YOU?*
Yes
yes
no that is not funny
Business class is the same as first class
@@juliangaming9713 I was in a deluxe plane with plastic seats and PERSIONAL LIGHTS that are customisable and GADGETS!
Useful. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the info and sharing your video..
If I was on first class,then yes I would be able to notice?🤔🤔🤔
I mean every symbol has a meaning to it just need to pay attention to it
yah right
This video is amazing, I did not know that a plane had secrets
I saw 2 of those Triangular stickers on the same flight from the same seat
Is anyone gonna mention this unicorn over here?

Is that engine on fire 🔥? 🤔
Yes it is
Great video. ☺️
wow i have noticed loops triangles holes and i also know that there are three layers of windows and i am definitely speaking the truth and i love window seats

Am I looking for triangles or rectangles? Also, if there are 4 altogether and 3 are on one side, (as shown in the video) then there would only be one triangle or is that rectangle on the other side.
Never knew about that button on the isle seat's inboard armrest, as a matter of fact: I am a window seat magnet.
Flight attendants don’t check the wings if the flaps are working 😂 We have a slats/flaps indicator in the flight deck.
I thought the same thing, I'm cabin crew and I have never had to check the flaps for the flight deck 😂
They would do so if something is wrong, that's when those indicators come in handy, especially if a fault occurs during the flight
Siggen the only reason I could think of is a LCD failure. On the 787 at least. Anyways, how could the flight attendants know the correct position of the slats/flaps?
@@marshallhogan3440 teaching the attendants to recognize all the different slat/flaps position probably isn't feasible. But if the flight crew try to engage the flaps, but some error appears, the FAs can help with some simple diagnostics. Is the flaps in the fully retracted position? Are they somewhat extended? Are they flapping around with hydraulic fluid spraying out? These are more like the questions the FAs could help answer by looking out the windows.
If the pilots noticed a bird strike or possible bird strike, they would most certainly ask the FAs to inspect the wing leading edge to look for possible damage. Also the FAs looking at the engines could be useful in diagnosing a engine failure. Some newer aircraft have cameras looking at the engines, so the flight crew can do some of this without the help of the FAs.
Siggen i mean on an everyday flight. Not a failure. Checking for hydraulic fluid is different to checking the position of the flaps / slats. Everything about wing inspection is true, but you have the wrong idea of what I said
What I'd like to know [after watching so many Air Disasters episodes] is why on earth can't they figure a way so the pilots can see the engines? It seems they're always oblivious to a big problem. I've told my children who travel much for work that if they see something say something!
It's impractical considering where the cockpit is. And as time went on, more sensors were added to help alert the pilots to issues with the engines and on top of that, there's additional training for both the FAs and pilots.
I just knew that there are sleeping compartments in airplanes for pilots and the crew
Yes, please don’t grab the headrest in front of you to pull yourself up - it’s jarring and you can actually pull someone’s hair. Use your other hand and push off your own headrest!
Rectangular
*shows triangle*
The are four sticker
*shows three*
I-l-u-m-i-n-a-t-a-i

@@kholoudojail3707 But it's wrong.
I'm A Pepsi still
@@kholoudojail3707 Still what?
I'm A Pepsi never mind..
Never seen any triangles. I seat on the wing seat almost every time I fly.
Me 2..
Watch my song plzz
You should try sitting inside on a seat.
I heard somewhere that the food people serve in airplanes have more spices in it so we can feel the them, because when we are up in the sky we taste different or something
If I had known about the hidden hand rails near the over head compartments, I could have fared much better during the flights! I have mobility problem. The first thing taken away from me when I enter a flight is my cane. I can't walk without a support and I am quite heavy! I feel sorry that I could have disturbed unintentionally so many co passengers by holding on to their seats, as I walked along inside the flight! :(

I would hope the pilots would take the No Doze. 😳 Honestly, mr husband uses it the first time he yawns when driving. It is just souped up caffeine. 😆However, I would expect they would have more

Great but what is the circle and square next to the triangle
Hmmmm that’s so interesting 😁
pretty soon we will get a video saying bright side and plane is getting married.😂😂
Bright side: you might notice a rectangular sticker
Me: ITS A FRICKIN TRIANGLE WHERE DO YOU SEE A DANG RECTANGLE
I thought they told you where the nearest exit was to make it easier for passengers to get off in an emergency
This man never disappoints me
Why is there a unicorn on the winh
This guy is so amusing. Plus fab. Comments. Ps. The flight attendants don’t check the rings routinely.
My flight to Hawaii took 64 hours from Finland
0:17 is it rectangle or a triangle
listen carefully what he is saying😹😹
OMG SOOOOOO RIGHT 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😭😂😂😂
It's like BS read my mind. I saw one the other day when I was on a plane and at first I thought it was a moth, lol.
To pull up theplanes armrest on the planes i went is the buttons are on the sides not under or maybe its just im always on the middle
I went to Manhattan from Puerto Rico and it took 3 hours 20 minutes
even Without watching the video
I can say for Sure
It is ILLUMINATI sign 😂
Does anyone wonder how they know these secrets?

Me: *looks at the window* what was that someone is snoring
Crew: Zzz
Me: knock knock
Crew: somoeone know I'm at the top sleeping
I'm so early I don't know what to comment 👀
It actually means, if there is one person who is going to die on that flight, the person sitting under the triangle is the person designated to bite the dust.
3:50 why the unicorn???
Can't be the only one asking that? 🤔
I don't even wanna know.
not 10 minutes nor adds
