Which Galley item is specifically included in the secure checks?

• A. Trolleys and boxes stowed and secured
• B. Galley surfaces clear and free of clutter
• C. Ovens off
• D. Boilers off

Answer: (A)

Secure checks focus on anything in the galley that could move or become a hazard during flight, especially during turbulence or rapid maneuvers. The item specifically included is ensuring trolleys and boxes are stowed and secured. These are the heaviest, most movable galley components, and when they’re latched and locked in place they can’t shift or slide, protecting crew and passengers and keeping the galley area clear. Keeping galley surfaces clear and free of clutter, while important for cleanliness and quick access, isn’t the action singled out by secure checks. Turning ovens off or boilers off are safety steps related to equipment power and fire risk, but the secure-check focus is on securing movable galley items like trolleys and boxes.
