Airline employees have revealed some of their secrets for air travel, including the length of time that you can use an oxygen mask. If the airplane cabin loses pressure, you only have about 12-20 seconds to put on the mask before you lose consciousness. So remember to put your mask on first before trying to help children. The oxygen in the masks will last for about 12 minutes, which is long enough for the flight to descend to a lower flying altitude and everyone can breathe normally.
oxygen mask : 酸素マスク
depressurize : 減圧する
