A time Available Short Notice can be up to?

• A. 5 minutes.
• B. 15 minutes.
• C. 2 minutes.
• D. 10 minutes.

Answer: (A)

Time Available Short Notice is the maximum amount of time you have to carry out the necessary safety and passenger handling actions when you’re told about a last‑minute change. In training, this window is limited to five minutes, which strikes a balance between acting quickly and doing the essential checks and communications properly. Five minutes gives you enough time to brief the crew, inform or reassure passengers, and complete any quick safety tasks without delaying the flight more than necessary. The other options are too long or too short for the kind of rapid, yet still thorough, response required in short-notice situations.
