Only two passengers managed to survive and people have been curious how they were lucky enough to escape the tragedy with their lives.<\/p>\n

A seating plan shows that the only survivors of the crash were flight attendants who were sat at the very back of the plane.<\/p>\n

Cabin crew are often seats at the very front or very back of the plane and on the Boeing 737-800s, fold-down seats for the crew are placed adjacent to the rear doors, where the two survivors were extracted from.<\/p>\n

Flight attendants are also given significant training and access to safety equipment however it is not clear whether they used any during the crash.<\/p>\n

Other people have noted that their seats are facing the opposite direction, and they are separated from the other passengers by the onboard toilets.<\/p>\n

An image of a the seating plan has been doing the rounds on\u00a0social media<\/a>\u00a0and has led to people speculating these factors may have increased their chance of survival.<\/p>\n

One\u00a0Reddit<\/a>\u00a0user wrote: \u201cThe main reason why they had a better chance of survival was that they were wearing a 4 point harness, facing backwards, behind the lavatory and received the least amount of impact force.<\/p>\n

Another said: \u201cYes. It\u2019s likely because the front of the plane absorbed the impact and pax were thrown into seats in front of them.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe rear FA\u2019s wouldn\u2019t hit anything at impact. So that likely helped them.”<\/p>\n

A third wrote: \u201cThose 2 seats are jump seats for cabin crew, not passengers. Either way, it’s miraculous that anyone survived that. What a tragic crash, my condolences to those that lost loved ones, I hope they find peace and answers.\u201d<\/p>\n

And another noted: \u201cThe two crew members were very lucky to survive the impact. However this outcome heavily relied on the fact that emergency crews risked their lives to go in there and save them without hesitation or indication of life. They are heroes.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
