It's easy to say what you would have done when you have time to think about it, but I have a hard time seeing how I would agree to move into an enclosed area when there was trouble. I don't even like being in them when all is normal.
Agree. Going into an enclosed area should be avoided. There is a limit to what passengers should do. Some people may be willing to hop up along the cabin outside to mitigate water influx. Others a lesser action. At some point, people may have to make their own decision about actions to take to protect themselves.
