What are Attendant Indication Panels (AIP) on the A350?

• A. LCD screens located at crew rest facility only
• B. LCD screens located at each FA station
• C. LCD screens located at cockpit
• D. LCD screens located at each FA station and in the crew rest facility, providing information on status of passenger call lights, cabin smoke detection, interphone calls, and PA use

Answer: (D)

Attendant Indication Panels on the A350 are LCD displays that give flight attendants real-time visibility of cabin activity. They’re installed at each flight attendant station and in the crew rest facility, so crew can monitor things from their work area and during rest periods. The panels show the status of passenger call lights, cabin smoke detection alerts, interphone calls, and PA use. This combination of locations and information helps attendants respond quickly to calls or alerts and coordinate with the rest of the crew. Placing them only in the cockpit or limiting them to a single area would prevent full situational awareness, and omitting any of the listed functions would leave important cabin events unseen.
