Which statement describes moving out of the exit row due to personal preference?

• A. The reason must be disclosed
• B. The reason must be documented
• C. The reason must be recorded
• D. The reason does not need to be disclosed

Answer: (D)

Moving out of the exit row for personal preference is treated as a voluntary seat change, and the reason does not need to be disclosed. Exit-row seating is reserved for passengers who can assist in an emergency, but if a passenger requests to switch for comfort or other personal reasons, the policy generally allows the move without requiring sharing the reason. The crew will confirm you still meet the basic safety criteria and that the change won’t affect evacuation, but there’s no need to document or record the reason. This approach protects privacy and keeps the process efficient while maintaining safety.
