I tend to fly, domestically about 80K + miles a year. Over the past years, I've been in more than one 'near miss'. During the 'emergency instructions' I know all about the oxygen masks, etc.. and I can and have opened the emergency door. .so I tend to not pay too much attention to that - before I sit down, you can be damn sure I know where the emergency exit is and how many rows forward or back from my seat it is.. So I generally don't pay much attention to those announcements either..

If it's my first time flying on a certain plane, I will listen to the announcements just in case something is different.

Flight announcements... Eh - flight route is interesting to me, becuse when you are a regular on a flight, it's interesting to me to see how many different ways there are to get there -- (especially when we enter Canuckistani air space) I frankly only care if I am delayed if I am transferring planes (and i try to avoid that because there are always so many delays) Delays are more common than being on time flying out of the northeast -- it's bigger news when the plane is on time. Weather I could care less about... What gate we're landing at - matters to me at some airports (if I am not transferring, because I know how far from the baggage claim I am... and where the restrooms are.
