seatbelt sign

Cabin safety indicator

The seatbelt sign is the illuminated indicator on an aircraft that tells passengers when to fasten their seatbelts, typically during takeoff, landing, and turbulence.

The captain controls it from the cockpit.

The seatbelt sign is on, so please remain seated.

Ignoring it is technically a federal offense, though enforcement is rare.
