What is the procedure during moderate turbulence?

• A. Continue cabin service as normal
• B. Discontinue cabin service, secure trolleys and galley equipment, secure items from the top of the galleys, infant secured, CC check the passenger seatbelts fastened and hand baggage stowed, CC take their seats once duties complete and Flight crew makes PA
• C. Evacuate the aircraft
• D. Only secure trolleys

Answer: (B)

The main concept is protecting people and stabilizing the cabin when turbulence is moderate by securing the cabin and ensuring passengers are belted and safely seated. The best sequence is to stop cabin service, secure trolleys and galley equipment, secure items from the top of the galleys, ensure infants are strapped in, and have the cabin crew check that passenger seatbelts are fastened and hand baggage is stowed. Only after these tasks are completed do the cabin crew take their seats, while the flight crew makes a public announcement to inform everyone that turbulence is ongoing. This approach minimizes the risk of injuries from moving objects and unbelted passengers and keeps crew members safer during the disturbance. Continuing service would expose people to movement and potential injury; evacuating is reserved for emergencies; securing only trolleys misses other hazards like unsecured items and unbelted passengers.
