Question

Why jet planes have pressurized cabins

Answer 1

Although aircraft cabins arepressurized, cabin air pressureat cruising altitude is lower than air pressure at sea level. At typical cruising altitudes in the range 11 000–12 200 m (36 000–40 000 feet), air pressure in the cabin is equivalent to the outside air pressure at 1800–2400 m (6000–8000 feet) above sea level.
