When are passenger safety briefs required to be conducted?

• A. After boarding and before departure.
• B. Prior to departure.
• C. During climb.
• D. On arrival.

Answer: (B)

Safety briefings are delivered before the aircraft departs. Providing the briefing prior to pushback and engine start ensures passengers know how to use seat belts, locate exits, and understand the life jackets and oxygen systems before any movement or potential emergency. Once the plane is in flight, that initial briefing has already served its purpose, and emergencies are handled with ongoing, in-flight safety procedures rather than the pre-departure briefing. Briefings on arrival aren’t relevant to preparing for in-flight emergencies.
