Which items are included in cabin equipment checks on the ground?

• A. Cabin checks confirm seating, safety cards, life vests, and exits.
• B. Galley checks verify service items, beverage carts, and safety equipment status.
• C. Cabin checks confirm beverage carts and hot beverages.
• D. Cabin checks inspect galley ovens only.

Answer: (A)

Cabin equipment checks on the ground focus on safety-related items inside the passenger cabin. The check ensures seating is present and secure, safety information cards are available in each seat pocket, life vests are on board and accessible as required, and all cabin exits are clearly identified and unobstructed. These elements are what passengers rely on for safety and must be verified before flight. Items tied to galley operations—such as beverage carts, hot beverages, or ovens—belong to galley/service checks, not cabin checks, which is why they don’t fit this category.
