Aviation Computer Based Training (CBT) Practice

Restricting passenger movement during flight is an effective hijack prevention procedure because it limits opportunities for unlawful actions within the aircraft. By controlling movement, flight crews can reduce the risk of passengers accessing areas that could enable them to disturb the safety of the flight or engage in hijacking behaviors. This procedure allows crew members to monitor passenger activities more effectively, ensuring that any suspicious behavior can be addressed promptly.

Implementing such restrictions can enhance overall situational awareness in the cabin and enable quicker reactions to any threats. The focus is on maintaining a secure and controlled environment, minimizing the possibility of individuals approaching sensitive areas of the aircraft. This, in turn, contributes to the overall safety and security measures that airlines put in place to protect passengers and crew alike.
