REPLACEMENT OF INCAPACITATED OR UNAVAILABLE SENIOR CABIN CREW MEMBER BY ANOTHER SENIOR CABIN CREW MEMBER
To ensure that another senior cabin crew member is assigned without undue delay, the operator should take appropriate measures. These include, but are not limited to, the following:
(a) to ensure that a flight or series of flights do not depart from an aerodrome where a senior cabin crew member is available or can be made available, the operator may:
(1) appoint a senior cabin crew member originally assigned to another flight and who is available at the concerned base or stopover (layover) point if the reporting time for that flight provides sufficient time to find a replacement; or
(2) assign a senior cabin crew member who is on standby to operate the flight or to position to the destination where the nominated senior cabin crew member has become incapacitated or unavailable to operate;
(b) the operator should utilise another senior cabin crew member if she/he is among the operating crew on the same flight;
(c) in case of unavailable senior cabin crew member, the operator should use the available time and resources to replace him/her at the stopover (layover) point with another senior cabin crew member;
(d) the operator should consider including the identification of the most appropriately qualified cabin crew member in pre-flight briefings.
EASA aviation regulations require airlines to have procedures for replacing incapacitated or unavailable senior cabin crew. Operators should prioritize using available senior crew from the same base, standby personnel, or those already on the flight. Replacement at stopovers should also be considered, with pre-flight briefings identifying qualified candidates.
