No life vest demonstration with Sky Europe?

I have flown with Sky Europe a few times, and not once did they even as much as mention the life vests under the seats, or how to use them. Isn't this mandatory?

The AMS-WAW route includes one rather large lake (although it really doesn't look that large from the air), also on one of the flights we were given a different route, which took us over a bit of the Baltic Sea, Denmark and the North Sea. Still no mention of life vests.

KLM always tells about the life vests on the same route.

Well, on all flights I did, they just mentioned where the life vest was and said the instructions were on the safetycard ...

Greetz,

Maybe someone complained; last time I flew with them, which was actually quite some time ago, they didn't even mention them (maybe they were afraid people would take them with them as a souvenir?). Won't be flying with them anytime soon either, since they are dropping AMS-WAW.

actually when you don't fly over water, they don't have to show hosw the thing operates.

Yes but my point is that they are in fact flying over water, the IJsselmeer. Doesn't that count? What about when they get rerouted over the Baltic sea again..

yes, or what if they had to use their alternative due to bad weather that was over a patch of water?

Okay, I just flew back and forth with KLM and they didn't tell about the live vests either...

Okay, now I'm discouraged of Sky Europe and Wizzair. I have to fly one of them, and right now they both look pretty bad!
