What is an Abled Bodied Passenger (ABP)?

• A. A person who volunteers to assist the cabin crew in an evacuation
• B. A passenger who requires wheelchair assistance
• C. A passenger seated in the cabin crew area
• D. A passenger with a medical condition

Answer: (A)

An Abled Bodied Passenger is someone on board who is physically able to help the cabin crew during an evacuation and who volunteers for this role. In an emergency, crew rely on ABPs to assist with guiding passengers to exits, helping with brace positions, or moving people and equipment to get everyone off the aircraft quickly. It’s about capability and willingness to assist, not disability status, seating location, or medical conditions.
