If the Captain is incapacitated, whose guidance should the FA follow?

• A. Listen to the remaining pilot and assist
• B. Take control of the airplane
• C. Evacuate the cabin
• D. Call for security

Answer: (A)

When the Captain is incapacitated, the remaining pilot in the cockpit assumes command. The flight attendants should listen to that pilot and assist as directed to maintain cabin safety and support the flight deck. This ensures a clear line of authority and coordinated actions for safe handling of the situation. Flight attendants are not authorized to take control of the aircraft themselves; evacuations are not initiated unless ordered or required by safety conditions, and calling for security is for security threats or disturbances beyond normal operations.
