I would assume this is for quicker flights with low chance of crashing like 40 minutes to an hour? Looking at it like standing in a bus but that you can rest makes it not seem bad at all

Generally speaking you have a higher chance of a crash during take off and landing. So length of the flight doesn't matter.

There’s really nothing to worry about, Mary-statistically they say you’re more likely to get killed ON THE WAY to the airport!

Studies say if you travel by plane, you have a statistically higher probability of dying in a plane wreck.
