In which location is it essential for the Link to be stored during the brace position?

Storing the Link in a garment pocket or a suitable pouch during the brace position is essential for several safety reasons. Firstly, keeping the Link directly on the person ensures quick access during emergency situations. In the brace position, passengers are typically positioned to minimize risk during an impact, and having the Link close by increases the likelihood of being able to use it effectively if needed.

Additionally, storing the Link in a personal garment pocket or a pouch allows for easy retrieval without requiring the passenger to reach under the seat or rummage through baggage, which can be particularly challenging in an emergency evacuation scenario where every second counts. Furthermore, carrying the Link on one's body provides assurance that it won't become dislodged or lost among other items that might shift during turbulence or an emergency landing.

In contrast, other locations such as under the seat or in the seat compartment may result in delays in accessing the Link, as they may not be immediately visible or reachable. Similarly, storing it in hand luggage could be problematic, as hand luggage is often stowed during take-off and landing and may be difficult to access in the brace position. Thus, having the Link in a garment pocket or suitable pouch is indeed the most effective option for ensuring safety and preparedness.
