If a seat row is unoccupied, how can it be utilized?

When a seat row is unoccupied, utilizing that space for standard cabin bags is beneficial for both passengers and the airline. This practice can help maximize the use of cabin space while still adhering to the overall safety and regulatory requirements of the airline.

Standard cabin bags can be stowed underneath unoccupied rows, allowing for better management of luggage and contributing to a more organized cabin environment. This capacity can also enhance passenger comfort by reducing clutter in the overhead compartments.

The other options misinterpret the policy regarding unoccupied rows. While it may seem logical to keep the row empty, especially for safety or operational protocols, it is more practical and efficient to allow it to serve as additional storage for luggage. This approach aligns with optimizing cabin space within the operational guidelines of the airline.
