Which personnel are responsible for pre-checking the cabin?

The responsibility for pre-checking the cabin primarily falls on flight attendants. They are trained and designated to ensure that the passenger cabin is safe and prepared before takeoff. This includes checking that all safety equipment is in place, ensuring that aisles and exits are clear, verifying that passengers have complied with safety regulations, and preparing for in-flight service.

Flight attendants have a crucial role in maintaining safety and ensuring a smooth boarding process. Their training equips them with the skills to identify any issues or irregularities within the cabin that could impact passenger safety or comfort. While pilots and cabin supervisors also play important roles in overall flight operations, the direct responsibility for pre-checking the cabin during boarding and before departure is specifically assigned to flight attendants as part of their duties.
