YOUR SAFETY<br />

& COMFORT<br />

SCOOT<br />

SECURITY<br />

POLICY<br />

<strong>Scoot</strong> reserves<br />

the right to deny<br />

boarding to<br />

passengers who<br />

are inappropriate<br />

on board or<br />

on the ground<br />

with their<br />

comments or<br />

behaviour.<br />

KEEP MOVING<br />

Maintaining good blood<br />

circulation and muscle relaxation<br />

goes a long way towards avoiding<br />

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), a painful<br />

condition that arises when a clot obstructs<br />

blood flow in a vein. Though it’s a rare<br />

occurrence, don’t take any chances,<br />

especially during long <strong>flight</strong>s. During your<br />

<strong>flight</strong>, move your legs and feet for a few<br />

minutes every hour. Stand up and stretch<br />

your arms and chest.<br />

CABIN PRESSURE<br />

Changes in cabin pressure during the <strong>flight</strong><br />

may cause discomfort in the ears. Relieve<br />

ear pain by swallowing hard, holding your<br />

nose and gently breathing out with your<br />

mouth closed. If travelling with toddlers or<br />

infants, give them a sweet or feed them a<br />

snack when cabin pressure rises,<br />

particularly during take-off.<br />

SAFETY FIRST. NO COMPROMISE<br />

Your safety is our number-one priority, but you have a part to play<br />

too. The cabin crew’s safety briefing and the safety information<br />

card in your seat pocket provide crucial details in the unlikely event<br />

of an emergency. Always pay attention to these details on each<br />

<strong>flight</strong> you take because information can vary, such as the location<br />

of emergency exits and equipment. If in doubt about anything<br />

safety-related, ask. Our crew are specially trained to ensure your<br />

safety at all times. Regardless of the situation, safety must never<br />

be compromised, so follow the crew’s safety instructions at all<br />

times. It is an offence to refuse to obey any lawful command<br />

of the captain or cabin crew.<br />

CABIN CLEANLINESS<br />

Please do not place rubbish or other discarded items in your<br />

seat pocket or on the floor. Trash bins and napkins are located in the<br />

lavatories. Unless you have strict dietary requirements not catered<br />

for on board our <strong>flight</strong>s, please refrain from bringing outside food<br />

and beverages into the aircraft. We have a delicious array of meals<br />

and snacks on offer, including tempting vegetarian and halal options.<br />

PORTABLE<br />

ELECTRONIC<br />

DEVICES<br />

You may use your<br />

lightweight portable<br />

electronic devices<br />

(“Flight Safe” mode on<br />

A320 /”Transmitting”<br />

mode on B787) unless advised by crew.<br />

Personal headphones or earphones must be<br />

unplugged and not in use when the aircraft is<br />

taxiing, taking off and landing. Laptops may<br />

not be used and must be properly stowed<br />

when the aircraft is taking off, landing and on<br />

the ground. If you’re boarding or disembarking<br />

the aircraft on the tarmac, you must switch off<br />

your devices. At any point of the <strong>flight</strong>, the<br />

captain or cabin crew may advise you to turn<br />

off your devices.<br />

STAY HYDRATED<br />

Low humidity in the cabin<br />

can cause your body to<br />

dehydrate. Drink lots of<br />

non-alcoholic beverages<br />

during your <strong>flight</strong> and<br />

apply moisturiser liberally<br />

to combat dryness. Consume alcohol in<br />

moderation while on board as high altitude<br />

intensifies its effects. The consumption of any<br />

alcoholic beverage not purchased from the<br />

in<strong>flight</strong> menu is not permitted.<br />

DON’T SMOKE<br />

<strong>Scoot</strong> enforces a strict no-smoking policy on all<br />

its <strong>flight</strong>s, which also prohibits the use of<br />

e-cigarettes. Please refrain from lighting up in<br />

the lavatories, as doing so could endanger the<br />

safety of your fellow guests or disrupt the <strong>flight</strong>.<br />
