What must happen after all passengers are boarded?

After all passengers are boarded, the completion of pre-taxi duties and advisory issuance is critical to ensure the safety and efficiency of the flight operations. This process involves flight attendants and the flight deck crew finalizing preparations before the aircraft moves from the gate. This includes tasks like confirming cabin readiness, ensuring that all safety protocols are in place, and thoroughly briefing the team on any necessary information relating to the flight.

Completing pre-taxi duties involves checking that all safety equipment is operational, securing the cabin, and preparing passengers for departure, which is vital for a smooth boarding transition to taxi and takeoff. Advisory issuance refers to communicating important information such as departure procedures and any relevant updates to the passengers, which is essential for maintaining their awareness and safety.

While safety demonstrations and equipment checks are also important, they occur at different stages in the boarding and pre-departure process. Safety demonstrations usually happen before taxiing, and equipment checks must be completed prior to boarding, making the completion of pre-taxi duties the logical and necessary step immediately following passenger boarding.
