During onboarding, two questions are asked to the flight attendant. One is 'Minimum crew on board.' What is the other item?

• A. Cabin temperature OK
• B. Checked in by seating assignment
• C. 1st class upgrade default
• D. Domestic vs International ticket exchange

Answer: (A)

This item tests readiness of the cabin environment before service begins. Checking that the cabin temperature is OK is a practical, safety-related step that ensures passengers will be comfortable and that the HVAC system is functioning properly. If the temperature is outside a comfortable range, it can affect passenger well-being, crew performance, and may signal a maintenance issue with the environmental controls.

The other options aren’t about cabin readiness: seating assignment status relates to passenger processing, not a cabin condition check; fare class upgrades and ticket exchanges are administrative or policy details, not operational readiness checks for the onboard environment.
