Cabin Crew Training
Cabin Crew Members, also known as Flight Attendants are the face of the airline industry. They are responsible for the safety and comfort of passengers on board aircraft. They provide a variety of services, including:
- Greeting passengers and helping them to find their seats
- Serving meals and drinks
- Providing information about the flight
- Handling emergencies and medical situations
