DG stands for which category?

• A. Do Not Resuscitate (order)
• B. Deadhead
• C. Cancelled
• D. Dangerous Goods; same as HAZMAT

Answer: (D)

Dangerous Goods are items that could pose a risk in air travel and must be handled, packed, labeled, and documented under strict safety rules. In aviation, this category is treated the same as HAZMAT, since both refer to substances or devices that require special precautions. The other terms refer to unrelated concepts: medical orders (Do Not Resuscitate), a crew member traveling as a passenger (deadhead), or a flight status (cancelled). Understanding DG helps flight attendants know what can be carried and how it must be stored to keep everyone safe.
