What does MONITOR mean in this context?

• A. To watch, check, or keep track of.
• B. To adjust seating assignments.
• C. To communicate with ground staff.
• D. To measure cabin pressure.

Answer: (A)

Monitoring means staying aware of what’s happening in the cabin and keeping track of important details so you can respond quickly. It involves watching passenger behavior, checking for hazards or obstructions, listening for cues from other crew, and noting equipment or safety indicators. In this context, to monitor is to watch, check, or keep track of.

The other options describe different tasks. Adjusting seating assignments is a specific service action, not ongoing observation. Communicating with ground staff is a coordination task, not the act of observing and assessing the cabin. Measuring cabin pressure is a technical check handled by the pilots or maintenance, not a routine monitoring duty for cabin crew.
