Abstract:

Infant enplanements are estimated to be approximately 1% of all passenger enplanements. Yet recommended procedures for such precious cargo in emergencies are few. Previous research shows that passenger knowledge is a key factor in determining passenger responses in accidents, underscoring the need for detailed evacuation information and instructions for parents with infants/small children. The present study was conducted to identify a set of procedures to recommend to passengers with infants evacuating an airplane in an emergency, and consisted of evacuations using a Type III overwing exit, reported here, and a Type I floor-level exit with inflatable escape slide (see DOT/FAA/AM-1/18). The information obtained is intended for use in developing passenger education materials and pre-evacuation briefings.
