Seatbelts need to be worn at all times while seated.

No matter how "uncomfortable" it is.

Yes fully agree, but surely the crew must’ve been aware they were flying into a storm, and the seat beat sign was on.

 

Very little details available yet.

No detail but in these mass casualty events seated passengers who have belts secured are not usually harmed

 

So why do many people feel  seatbelts are "unconfortable", I never noticed myself?

As we know not all people wear seatbelts or were going to the toilet.

Cabin pressure wouldn't have changed much, if at all.

Can make anyone start believing in God again, desperately asking for help.

Just in case God is listening....

why not? even when usually descending to land you need to equalise, 6000 feet a different ball game

Whilst seated keep seat belts loosely fastened
