What is the minimum number of flight attendants required for the A220?

• A. Two
• B. Three
• C. Four
• D. Five

Answer: (B)

The number of flight attendants on a flight is determined by the number of passenger seats in the cabin. The rule is one flight attendant for every 50 seats or fraction thereof. To figure the minimum crew, divide the total passenger seats by 50 and round up to the next whole number. For the A220 in Breeze’s typical configuration, the cabin usually holds more than 100 seats but up to about 150. That places it in the 101–150 seats range, which requires three flight attendants (since 101–150 divided by 50 gives 2.02–3, rounded up to 3). If the aircraft had exactly 100 seats, two would suffice; with more than 150 seats, you’d need four or more. So, the minimum for the A220 in a common Breeze setup is three flight attendants.
