Cabin safety can include topics related to survivability following a crash, to operational issues such as flying into turbulence, and to the threat posed by hostile or unruly passengers. According to IATA, there were more than 49,000 reported cases of unruly passenger incidents in flight between 2007 and 2015. Cabin safety is not an accident category.
