A safety and information device is arranged on at least one passenger seat in the passenger cabin of a commercial aircraft, wherein several passenger seats are arranged within the passenger cabin along at least one longitudinal aisle, and wherein display elements for providing the passengers with seat information are arranged on the respectively aisle seats. The arrangement should increase the safety of passengers who stand in the aisles during the flight and simultaneously improve the display of seat information for the passengers. This problem is solved in that the safety and information device also contains a handle element that is arranged on the passenger seat in the region of the upper lateral edge that faces the aisle and realized in the form of a recessed grip with a handle mounted thereon, and in that display elements for providing passengers with information are arranged on the outer side of the handle or on a recess flange that faces the aisle. In this case, it is particularly advantageous that a combined safety and information device makes it possible to realize the safety and information functions with a single device.
