The most comfortable and safe places on the plane
Like in any other aircraft, the safest seats in the Boeing 737-200 Freighter are located in the rear of the plane, as they are closer to the exits in case of an emergency. However, as a cargo aircraft, it does not have passenger seats, so the question of seat selection does not arise. Instead, it is important to ensure that the cargo is properly distributed and secured to ensure flight safety.
