Which FA is assigned for pretaxi announcements?

• A. FWD
• B. AFT
• C. MEGAPHONE
• D. WIFI

Answer: (A)

Pretaxi announcements are made by the flight attendant responsible for the forward section of the cabin. Being up front puts this FA in the best position to coordinate with the cockpit and to reach the cabin quickly to brief passengers before pushback and taxi. They can verify that the seat belts are fastened, baggage is stowed, and doors and slides are secure, and then deliver the information clearly to everyone in the cabin. The rear flight attendant would not have the same reach or control over the front part of the cabin, so they’re not the standard choice for these announcements. The megaphone is a backup tool used only if the regular PA system isn’t functioning, not the normal assignment. WiFi has no role in making pretaxi announcements.
