4.2 JAR-OPS1.1000 Senior Cabin Crew Members for the A380-800
JAR-OPS 1.1000 - Senior Cabin Crew Members, states: “An operator shall nominate a senior cabin crew member whenever more than one cabin crew member is assigned.”
On the A380-800, because of the large numbers of passengers on both the main deck and the upper deck, consideration should be given to each deck being under the supervision of a Senior Cabin Crew Member, ie one Senior Cabin Crew Member assigned to each deck. This would result in a minimum requirement for two Senior Cabin Crew Members.
For effective communication and co-ordination between the cabin crew and the flight crew, and vice versa, and for effective communication and co-ordination between cabin crew members on the main deck and the upper deck, further consideration should be given to ensuring that one of the two Senior Cabin Crew Members is ‘in overall charge’ of the passenger compartments, ie the passenger cabins on both decks.
The Senior Cabin Crew Member ‘in overall charge’ will have responsibility for all standard operational safety related duties, eg acceptance of pre-flight equipment serviceability checks, security checks, passenger headcount, door arming checks, cabin secure checks, etc. Additionally, the Senior Cabin Crew Member ‘in overall charge’ will have responsibility for all emergency safety related duties, eg co-ordination of in-flight fire fighting, incidents involving disruptive passengers, medical emergencies, turbulence, decompression, preparation for an emergency landing or ditching, etc.
