I haven't flown in a while, but when I have in the past, the first thing I'd do after getting settled was check out the safety card .
I kind of zoned out during the safety belt/oxygen mask portion of the lecture, but I always made sure I knew where the exits were.
When I was younger (like, way younger), it was a superstition thing. "If I read the card and pay attention, the plane won't crash." As I got older, that idea faded, but it was still habit. Now I just want to refresh my memory and make sure I'll know what to do.
