Do flight attendants ever get injured by turbulence? Some crewmembers seem to think they’re immune to injury.
During taxi, what are the regulation(s) that apply to opening an overhead bin or a galley storage container to put something away?
Is there a way for me to find out whether over the counter medication or prescription medication I’m taking is permitted or prohibited when working as a crewmember?
Are flight attendants required to be trained on emergency equipment located in the flight deck?
Why do airlines make such a big deal about passengers bringing spare batteries to charge their phones?
Can a passenger bring a full-size pillow on board and does it need to be stowed for take-off and landing? Would the answer be different if the same passenger with a pillow was seated in an exit seat? What about large stuffed toy pillows that children sometimes bring on board?
Are plastic cups allowed in the cabin for takeoff or landing when the airline provides the cups?
Must armrests in exit seats must be fixed, or is it up to the operator to decide whether the armrests can be of the movable type?
