A flight attendant whose schedule entitles him/her to hold a schedule built by the company is known as what?

• A. Line Holder
• B. Schedule Manager
• C. Crew Member
• D. Trip Leader

Answer: (A)

This question tests how crew scheduling distinguishes between different ways attendants are assigned to work. A flight attendant who holds a line is assigned a pre-planned sequence of trips built by the company. This line is typically obtained through seniority-based bidding and outlines the exact trips, dates, and rest periods they will fly. In other words, they have a defined schedule they are responsible for, not just being on standby.

That contrasts with being in a reserve or on-call status, where no fixed line is assigned and the crew member is called to fill trips as needed. The other terms aren’t used to describe this scheduling arrangement: a Schedule Manager isn’t a standard crew-role term for how lines are assigned; a Crew Member is a generic label; a Trip Leader refers to a leadership role on a trip, not how the schedule is constructed.
