Which item indicates Cabin Secure Checks are complete?

• A. Passengers seated
• B. Nose gear retracted
• C. Luggage in aisles
• D. Crew rest area closed

Answer: (A)

Cabin Secure Checks aim to confirm the cabin is safe for movement by making sure everyone is seated and properly belted, with the area free of hazards. The best signal that these checks are complete is that all passengers are seated. When passengers are seated and secured, the risk of injury from unexpected aircraft motion is minimized and the cabin is considered secure for taxi or takeoff. The other indicators relate to different aspects: a nose gear status refers to the aircraft’s external configuration, luggage left in the aisles indicates unsecured items and a safety breach, and the crew rest area being closed is about crew facilities rather than the cabin’s secure state.
