Which term refers to the Captain, First Officer, and/or Flight attendant?

• A. Guest
• B. Crewmember
• C. Revenue Guest
• D. Non-Revenue Guest

Answer: (B)

In airline terms, the people who work on the aircraft as part of the flight and cabin team are called crewmembers. The Captain and First Officer are part of the flight deck crew, while the Flight Attendant is part of the cabin crew; together they form the crew responsible for operating the flight and assisting passengers. This makes crewmember the encompassing term for all who work on board, rather than referring to passengers. A guest is someone traveling as a passenger, and revenue or non-revenue guest refers to the passenger’s ticket status, not the staff. So the best term for Captain, First Officer, and/or Flight Attendant is crewmember.
